Accessing Bar Spacing Property

[Harry]

Is it possible to access the properties of the chart

- equidistant bar spacing
- non-equidistant bar spacing (time-based)

from within an indicator? This would be necessary, as for many indicators the code to be executed would be different for the two cases.

Otherwise I would have to use an enum, and let user manually adjust the indicator to equidistant and non-equidistant bar spacing, which is not really the way to go.

Hi Harry, while it's an unsupported method you could try working with ChartControl.EquidistantBars returning a bool whether or not equidistant spacing in on.

That is exactly, what I was looking for. Thank you.

This is a very important idea for me. I need equal bar spacing on one chart with different data series; 500 tick and 1500 tick and 3000 tick all on one chart. Right now they seem to randomly go their own way. Exactly how is this controlled. I do not understand the comment to Harry about a bool. Please explain.
Thank you very much,

JohnPS, as stated above, this is unfortunately an unsupported property.
