owner |
The hosting NinjaScript object which is calling the draw method
Typically will be the object which is calling the draw method (e.g., "this") |
tag |
A user defined unique id used to reference the draw object.
For example, if you pass in a value of "myTag", each time this tag is used, the same draw object is modified. If unique tags are used each time, a new draw object will be created each time. |
isAutoScale |
Determines if the draw object will be included in the y-axis scale. Default value is false. |
text |
The text you wish to draw |
barsAgo |
The bar (x axis co-ordinate) where the draw object will be drawn. For example, a value of 10 would paint the draw object 10 bars back. |
time |
The time where the draw object will be drawn. |
y |
The y co-ordinate location the object will be drawn |
yPixelOffset |
The offset value in pixels from within the text box area |
textBrush |
The brush used to color the text of the draw object (reference) |
font |
A Simple Font object |
alignment |
TextAlignment.Center,TextAlignment.Left,TextAlignment.Right,TextAlignment.Justify

areaBrush |

areaOpacity |
Sets the level of transparency for the fill color. Valid values between 0 - 100. (0 = completely transparent, 100 = no opacity) |
isGlobal |
Determines if the draw object will be global across all charts which match the instrument |
templateName |

// Draws text |
Tip: In some cases, it may be useful to pass in the ChartControl.Properties TextFont brush as well as the LabelFont SimpleFont object to render your custom text . This will help ensure that the text will be visible and match what a user has configured for their chart label display settings. |
