Price Panel

[Zeos6]

Hi,

Is there a way to specify (using code) the price panel number on which you would like indicator output to be drawn? Please advise. Thank you.

Hello,

Thanks for your post.

There is no way to specify the panel number in code, but you could use either isOverlay or DrawOnPricePanel.

Using isOverlay decides whether the indicator is on the price panel as a whole (true) or in it's own panel (false).

Using DrawOnPricePanel will not affect plots but will determine whether drawing objects will be on the input series panel (true) or in the indicators panel (false).

I have included our help guide documentation on these two properties for your reference.

Thanks Josh. Appreciate the clarification.
It would be a nice feature to have: the ability to specify the panel where you want your output.

Use PanelUI? Read the NT Help.

Thanks for the hint koganam. Appreciate it. Will have a close look.

koganam,

Thanks for the info re PanelUI. Interesting. It is a readonly property. Not sure what you were hinting at though as I'd like to be able to specify the panel to which I render.

koganam,

Thanks for the info re PanelUI. Interesting. It is a read-only property. Not sure what you were hinting at though as I'd like to be able to specify the panel to which I render.

My mistake then. I thought that you wanted to know the panel to which the indicator was rendering. But, then again, I do not remember it being a read-only property. I must have been mistaken about that too. I apologize.

Hello, I have a problem with panel too.
I'm want make an indicator draw only on price panel, and i'm not want it open a new panel when user put it on graph.

I'm use in state: State.Configure :
IsOverlay = true;
DrawOnPricePanel = true;

But it's appear on a new panel if i'm not indicate, when i instanciate it on graphe on visual ui tab, Panel = Same as input series.

If i'm set in code Panel = 0;, the indicator is drawed correctly on chart, but a new empty panel still created.

So actualy the unique way i'm found to have it working properly it's the user who create the indicator on graph set Visual => panel => Same as ....

they are a way to force this from code ?

Thx.

Hello,
The proper place to put IsOverlay and DrawOnPricePanel is in State.SetDefaults. I have included links to our help guide on these two properties.
