Wingdings in NT7

[velocity]

I am trying to insert characters from the character map. This works in 6.5 but not in NT7 and was wondering where I am going wrong. this is what I have.

#region Variables

private System.Drawing.Font textFont;
#endregion

protected override void Initialize()
{
textFont = new Font("Wingdings 3",15);
}
#endregion

protected override void OnBarUpdate()
{

DrawText("MyMarker","‡",0,High[0]+TickSize,Color.Blue, textFont, StringAlignment.Center, Color.Transparent, Color.Transparent, 0);
}
#endregion

I am getting an error message that says:

No overload for method 'DrawText' takes '10' arguments

Where am I going wrong here?

Thanks

Please review the "coding breaking changes" section of the document you should have got with the beta, before migrating any custom indicator/strategy.

Also: there are related threads yet on this forum which you could find by the search function, e.g. http://www.ninjatrader-support2.com/...light=drawtext

Thanks, That helped. this made it work

DrawText("MyMarker"+CurrentBar,true,"ˆ",0,High[0]+TickSize,1,Color.Red, textFont, StringAlignment.Center, Color.Transparent, Color.Transparent, 0);

One thing I like about Wingdings is that you can set the font size...it would be really good to be able to set the size of Chart Markers in draw tools in a similar manner...most of them are just way too small to be of any real use. Maybe a user being able to add some selected Wingdings to the Chart Markers area and size them as wished could be good (??) if not too difficult.

Thanks...
