Advanced dynamic drawing

[BigRo]

for my current project i need something that is a little bit different than anything ive used so far and it puts my in a bit of a problem.

to describe the general problem in a simple way (outside of what im actually tryin to do) ....

lets assume i have an int value(n) that is calculated and potentially changed for every bar update. the value it can have is pretty much random and isn bound in a specific range. so it can essentailly be any real number.

i now wanna dynamicly draw as many (for example) horizontal lines as n is big. so for n=5 it should draw 5 lines. for n=46 46 lines and so on.

has anyone an idea how to even get started with this?

would be great.

A for loop, using the number as the limit for the index?

i googled what that is and it indeed looks quite fitting. i will take a look into that and if i run into a problem i will come back here. thanks.

Hello,
Koganam is correct that a for loop could do this.
You could use the following for loop:

private int numberOfHorizontal = 5;
for(int i = numberOfHorizontal = 5; i > 0; i--) 
{
    DrawHorizontalLine("stringtag" + Time[0], double, Color);
}
