Unlock Text

[Mindset]

Is it possible, code wise, to have text that is NOT locked on the chart

eg some text at the top of a bar that you can grab and move around without having to 'unlock' - or have I missed a trick somewhere?

i suppose with NT7 it can be done.

heres a code snippet.

IText t = DrawText("txt" + CurrentBar,CurrentBar.ToString(),0,High[0],Color.Red);
t.Locked = false;

Bukkan - many thanks for that - I don't quite see why support couldn't have come up with that?

Update

IText is a little quirky - so if you produce IText from outside the OnBarUpdate the unlocking facility no longer works.

Found this in help which is a bit brute force but it does the job in a manner of speaking...

// Loops through the DrawObjects collection
 foreach (IDrawObject draw in DrawObjects)
 {
 // Unlocks all draw objects for manual manipulation on the chart
    draw.Locked = false;
}
