Output indicator value on mouse over

[kotuk]

Hi,

I would like to print/output the value of an indicator at the current cursor position at the indicator title string. Is there an option to do so? It's very helfful to compare/watch the values of several indicators simultaniously.

Best regards,
Yuri

kotuk, welcome to our forums - unfortunately it would not be supported accessing the current cursor position programmatically, but for comparing indicator values both databox tools can be very helpful :

Unfortunatelly, the data box tools are somehow very limited.

The mini data box tool can show only the current panel values.
The regular data box tool is HUGE. I wish it can be somehow incorporated into the chart back ground. For example, i don't want to waste screen space on databox title and I don't want it to be a separate window.

kotuk, if the databox tools are not helpful here to you then I would suggest printing the indicator values needed directly to the output window for review of their values -
