Draw rectangle

[tinkerz]

DrawRectangle(string tag, bool autoScale, DateTime startTime, double startY, DateTime endTime, double endY, Color color, Color areaColor, int areaOpacity)

DrawRectangle("ColorCloseRange", false, 203000, sesshighestHigh,211000,sesslowestLow,Color.Transpa rent,Color.Yellow,RangeColorOpacity);

I get an error message that refers to startbar[0]

But I am trying to locate by time, as per the help document.

Is this a bug?

Hello Tinkerz,

The overload that's used is controlled by the data types you have in each field. You would need a DateTime object to use that overload.

Example:

 
#region Variables
private DateTime startDateTime;
private DateTime endDateTime;
 #endregion
 
protected override void OnBarUpdate()
{
startDateTime = new DateTime(Time[0].Year, Time[0].Month, Time[0].Day, 11, 00, 0);
endDateTime = new DateTime(Time[0].Year, Time[0].Month, Time[0].Day, 12, 00, 0);
 
DrawRectangle("ColorCloseRange", false, startDateTime, 1000, endDateTime, 1200, Color.Red, Color.Yellow,10);
}
