DrawLine not happening

[GKonheiser]

Can anyone see an obvious reason why this drawline wouldnt work?

DrawLine("MFE Profit" + CurrentBar, true, longBar, longPriceWatch, CurrentBar, MAX(High,CurrentBar - longBar)[0] -1 * TickSize, Color.Green,DashStyle.DashDot,1);

If checked it in Visual Studio and its getting hit and the values look good but im not seeing it on the chart and cant think why?

Hello GKonheiser,

Thanks for your post.

Do you see any errors in your log tab of the control center that relate to the indicator?

Not knowing your values I did:

DrawLine("MFE Profit" + CurrentBar, true, 10, Low[0], CurrentBar, MAX(High,CurrentBar - 10)[0] -1 * TickSize, Color.Green,DashStyle.DashDot,1);

and drew a million lines.

You could use Print statements just before the drawline to assess the values for longBar, longPricewatch and MAX(High,CurrentBar-LongBar)[0] -1*TickSize to assess the values.

Please let me know if this helps to resolve the issue.

Hi Paul,

I will put in a Print statement but as I said I check the values manually with Visual Studio.

Get back to you in a sec.

Hello GKonheiser,

Thanks for your posts and I agree the values seem reasonable.

How have you set "DrawOnPricePanel", true or false?

Hi Paul,

I have other objects that draw fine on the price panel, I haven't set DrawOnPricePannel to false. It's a bit of a mystery but I bet its something simple.

Ive been looking at this at the weekend and cant find a reason why it isn't drawing and not sure how else to debug it?

Hi Paul,

Ive found the problem, I am using the raw bar count and not the bars ago index.
