Draw.Text with Unicode

[KhaosTrader]

Hi,

I want to use Circled Numbers and Letters on my charts. I am using the Draw.Text.

The font I am using is "Arial Unicode MS" which requires me to use a unicode to access the character. For the Circled E, the character code is 24BA, how do I use this code in the Draw.Text to achieve access to this character?

Thanks in advance.

Hello KhaosTrader, and thank you for your question.

This publicly available MSDN link will demonstrate creating unicode characters from escape sequences.

In your case, this code

[FONT=Courier New]string example = "Your unicode character -> " + '\u24ba';
[COLOR=Black]Draw.Text(this, "example" + CurrentBar, example, 0, Close[0][/COLOR]);[/FONT]

gives us this output

Your unicode character -> Ⓔ

Please let us know if there are any other ways we can help.
