How to stop Text scrolling with price bars so it stays visible?

[Woomera]

Hi

I would like to use the Text tool to add some notes to my chart, then have the notes maintain the same position in the chart window while the bars scroll.

Is that possible?
Thanks.

You just need to be sure that you rewrite the text on each OnBarUpdate(), with a fixed number of barsAgo. If you write the text only once, it will scroll with the bars, as it will be plotted relative to the position that it was written in, which will be fixed relative to the bars.
