OnRender error...

[funk101]

In my *indicator* I'm getting this error:

Indicator 'MyIndicator': Error on calling 'OnRender' method on bar -1: Attempted to read or write protected memory. This is often an indication that other memory is corrupt.

I simply am trying to draw a rectangle at the current bar. Here's my code:

private Stroke stroke;

----
else if (State == State.Configure)
			{
				stroke = new Stroke(Brushes.Black, 2f);
			}
protected override void OnBarUpdate()
		{
			if (State == State.Historical)
				return;
			
		}	
		
		protected override void OnRender(ChartControl chartControl, ChartScale chartScale)
		{
			if (Bars == null)
				return;
			
			RectangleF rect = new RectangleF();
				
			try
			{
				rect.X = chartControl.GetXByBarIndex(ChartBars, 0);
				rect.Y = chartScale.GetYByValue(Close[0]);
				rect.Width = 100;
				rect.Height = 100;
				RenderTarget.DrawRectangle(rect, stroke.BrushDX);
			}
			catch (Exception e)
			{
				Print (e.Message);
			}
		}

Hello funk101,

Thank you for your post.

Please try chartScale.GetYByValue(Close.GetValueAt(CurrentBar-1)) and advise if the message continues.

If the message continues can you send us your log and trace files by going to Help > Email Support. Please list 'ATTN: Patrick H - 1505270' in the subject line.

In my *indicator* I'm getting this error:

Try..

RenderTarget.DrawRectangle(rect, stroke.Brush.ToDxBrush(RenderTarget);

Thanks that did the trick. Might I suggest that someone take the time and update some documentation? Specifically with regards to SharpDX, Stroke, RenderTarget, etc?

Same error when calling DrawText...

Ok, so now I'm getting the same error as below, here, *only when I added the RenderTarget.DrawText()*. If I comment it out the rectangles draw properly. I'm missing something in the Brush parameter, and unless I'm missing something, the docs on this are frustratingly sparce:

atOfferRect.X = chartControl.GetXByBarIndex(ChartBars, CurrentBar+1);
				atOfferRect.Y = chartScale.GetYByValue(Close.GetValueAt(CurrentBar-1)) - 20f;
				atOfferRect.Width = 80;
				atOfferRect.Height = 18;
				RenderTarget.DrawRectangle(atOfferRect, stroke.Brush.ToDxBrush(RenderTarget));
				[b]RenderTarget.DrawText("hello world", textFormat, atOfferRect, stroke.BrushDX);[/b]

Ok, so now I'm getting the same error as below, here, *only when I added the RenderTarget.DrawText()*

Same Problem, Same Solution.. stroke.Brush.ToDxBrush(RenderTarget)

Oy, sorry 'bout that. I guess I need a break ;-(
