iline object

[voyager]

Hallo

I'm using a manually drawn line object.

When i change programatically StartY or EndY, the change happens but when i do the same for StartBarsAgo or EndBarsAgo it doesn't.

Am i doing something wrong ?

Thanks in advance.

Hi voyager,

I believe this should work as well, with StartY or EndY. Can you provide some stripped down snippets of code for me to test on my end?

Thanks for replying

A little code:


string LineName;
double currentY;
foreach (IDrawObject draw in DrawObjects){
if ( draw is ILine){
ILine drawnLine = (ILine) draw;
drawnLine.StartY = drawnLine.EndY;

drawnLine.StartBarsAgo = 60;
drawnLine.EndBarsAgo = 10;
}
}


where the drawnLine.StartY = drawnLine.EndY;
works fine ( the line becomes horizontal ) ,
but the drawnLine.StartBarsAgo = 60;
drawnLine.EndBarsAgo = 10;
dont work.
Please remember to create manually a line.
Thanks again

Hi voyager,

Thank you for you patience while I try this on my end.

voyager, I was able to reproduce this here, we'll look into matters.

voyager, we checked into and the outcome is unfortunately expected : it's not possible to modify those properties for manual drawn objects via code as otherwise malicious code could easily modify a users custom drawn objects, so this is a safeguard to ensure this would not happen.

Thanks for your help.

p.s. Maybe i could propose for the security level to be manually adjustable.

You're welcome, thanks for your suggestion.
