How to draw text without background and outline colors specified

[clearpicks]

Hello,

How can Ninjascript draw texts with only front color specified? It does not accept null as a valid parameter for background color and outline color. Also the left border of the outline box incorrectly overlaps with the first letter in drawn text, is this a buy in drawtext()?

if ( FirstTickOfBar ) {
if ( Count -1 - CurrentBar == 0 ) {
DrawText("Test", false, " --Test", 0, Close[0], 0, Color.Red, tcFont, StringAlignment.Near, Color.Red, Color.Yellow, 5);
}
}

I suspect this overload would work:

DrawText(string tag, string text, int barsAgo, double y, Color color)

Regarding overlapping, your alignment parameter causes that I suspect.

So it seems drawText() can not draw outline box correctly when the string alignment is Far or Near. It only works correctly when it is set to Center. This is a minor bug.
