Set for the "Values" collection

[Lionel92]

Hello

I have created 12 plots on an indicator.
I am trying to affect each of them a value in a loop but the following instruction is generating an error message at compiling

Values[n+m][0].set(Values[n+m][1]+ L_Pas[n]);

CS1061 'type' does not contain a definition for 'member' and no extension method 'name' accepting a first argument of type 'type' could be found (are you missing a using directive or an assembly reference?).

I understand that where is nothing like a set method for the collection Values

The reason for the loop is that I don't want to duplicate the code 12 times juste because the name of the final plot is different

Can anyone see any workaround ?

Lionel, have just replied to your email to support as well. Would you see the same issue with a capitalized .Set call?

Set and not Set

Thanks for the fast reply, but replacing "set" by "Set" doesn't change anything, same error.

Lionel, are you sure this would resolve to a double value then as expected by the .Set?

Values[n+m][1]+ L_Pas[n]

Would you mind sending me a snippet I could give a run here on my end? You can contact me under the email ticket we had open, if you don't want to post it here.

I have send you a mail

Values[n+m][0] is itself a double. You cannot set a double. Try:

[COLOR=red][B]Values[n+m].S[/B][/COLOR]et(Values[n+m][1]+ L_Pas[n]);

That is, drop the indexer, and capitalize the Set directive.

many thanks for this reply .

I am assuming that it will set the current value of the plot "series".

I don't need it right now but just for my understanding. If we use Values (and not value) we cannot set a bar different from the current bar. Am i correct

As far as I can tell, Values[] is just the DataSeries array that NT uses as the default backing store for Plots. I do not see any reason why you cannot treat the members like any other DataSeries when it comes to setting values.

if i can't use

"Values [2][1].Set(something)"

how can I access the second bar of the 3rd plot series?

"Values [2][1].Set(something)"

how can I access the second bar of the 3rd plot series?

Values[2].Set(1, theValueToWhichItIsToBeSet);

Which is rather clearly explained when you look in the NT Help at the DataSeries entry.
