Draw.Text pixeloffset behaves differently on different Laptops

[ystan79]

Hi,

I am using draw text in the following manner:

Draw.Text(this, S2Label_tag,false,"S2",0,fixedYValue(int)((new SimpleFont("Arial", 8).Size)),Brushes.Red,new SimpleFont("Arial", 8),TextAlignment.Right,null,null,50);

This function is called everytime a new bar is formed.

As u can see the Y PixelOffset variable is set as the size of the font used (e.g. Arial, size 8)

On my development PC I can see the text "S2" positioned 1 text font size above the fixedYValue level.

However when I deploy the script to another PC, there is no YPixeloffset observed.

Both PCs are using the same NinjaTrader 8 platform version.

Only difference is that some settings maybe different as the other PC is for another user. (but I am very sure Auto scale is turned off for both).

Could this be a bug or due to a different setting on the 2 PCs? If it is the later are you able to advise what is the differences that could cause this different behavior?

Thanks and Regards

Hello Yong,

What are the resolutions set on both machines?

What is the text size (DPI) setting set to in the Windows Display Settings?

What are the physical dimensions of the screens on both computers?
