DrawText is a mess ??

[mate41]

Hi,
i use DrawTextFixed() and need DrawText() as a second text below the DrawTextFixed().
The DtawTextFixed() works as it should, but can't get the DrawText() working at any place in the chart. When it works, the text is displayed at the topright of the chart where it doesn't. EXAMPLE:

DrawText("Str_1", true, "QQQ "+ "Close:" + "think of a test text ",10, High[0]-4*TickSize , 0, Color.Red, textFont1, StringAlignment.Near, Color.Black,Color.White,5);

The "autoScale" and the "y co-ordinate" settings don't change anything.
This seems to be a common problem according to a search on the forum.
someone has the solution ?
Thanks in advance

Hello mate41, and thank you for your query.

The following code snippet works as expected on my system

        /// <summary>
        /// Called on each bar update event (incoming tick)
        /// </summary>
        protected override void OnBarUpdate()
        {
            DrawText("tag", "what a lovely bunch of coconuts", 0, High[0], Color.ForestGreen);
            DrawTextFixed("tag", "zimbabwe", TextPosition.BottomLeft);
        }

Does that work on your end as well? If it does, could I ask for you to modify it so that it produces the results you were seeing on your end? I believe this will make it easier to assist further.
