Draw.TextFixed - different colours on different lines

[GeorgeW]

Hello,

I have some code which prints 4 lines of values to my chart and each line may be a different colour depending on the values. I currently use Draw.Text to achieve this, but I would like the text to remain in a fixed position. Is there a way to use Draw.TextFixed to achieve this?

Thank you.

No. If you wan to do that, you will have to write your on information panel using the window properties for locations. Look in the code for SampleCustomRender for ideas.

Thanks for your response, Koganam.

I have been able to resolve the matter by starting a new Draw.TextFixed piece of code for each of the lines that I want on the chart, and then doubling the line spacing to the next line at the start of the text field for each subsequent line apart from the first. So the 2nd line text field starts with "\n" + "\n" +, the 3rd with "\n" + "\n" + "\n" + "\n" + and so on. Anything to avoid trying to get my head around the OnRender method this morning.

Well, yes, one can do that if the text background is transparent or empty. I kind of thought that you were coloring the background. I should have asked before writing. I apologize.
