Get current line color?

[redliontrader]

Is there a way to find out the user's selection for a plot color on the screen? I want to plot a text name next to a line in the same color as the user selected line?

If not, is there a way to have a color selection from the parameters for text?

TIA

Hi redliontrader,

There's unfortunately no supported technique for reading the plot color. You can assign color with PlotColors property.

A dedicated sample for using this with multicolored plots is available here:

Yes, you also define user defined color inputs. Help for this is available here:
