Draw.Pathtool example gives error

[PMitchum]

I tried this code example from the documentation with my own list of anchor points and Im getting "No overload for method "PathTool" takes 8 arguments".
It looks like the documentation example is wrong when comparing to the actual overload arguments. Also I can't find how I set the width of the lines?


List<ChartAnchor> anchors = new List<ChartAnchor>();

Draw.PathTool(this, "tag1", false, anchors, Brushes.CornflowerBlue, DashStyleHelper.Solid, Brushes.CornflowerBlue, 40);

Hello PMitchum,

Below is a link to the help guide on using Draw.PathTool().
https://ninjatrader.com/support/help...pathtool().htm

There is no overload with these parameters listed on this page.

The closest is:
Draw.PathTool(NinjaScriptBase owner, string tag, bool isAutoScale, List<ChartAnchor> chartAnchors, Brush brush, DashStyleHelper dashStyle)

But the 40 at the end would not make any sense. That is not a valid parameter for this overload.

Perhaps you were wanting to use a template?
Draw.PathTool(NinjaScriptBase owner, string tag, bool isAutoScale, List<ChartAnchor> chartAnchors, bool isGlobal, string templateName)

There is no overload NOW since you obviously changed it after I pointed it out, but there clearly was since I copy pasted the bold text in my previous post straight from the documentation.
And why are you linking to the page about it? I was literally pointing out I got the example from the documentation.

Your comment is implying that it was never there to begin with which is a bit arrogant. A fit reply would've just been "Thank you for pointing it out, it has now been changed".

I honestly don't know why Ninjascript draw methods insists on referencing a template instead of having an overload where you just insert brush color, dashstyle AND width instead. I don't want to have to create an extra file just because I want to draw something with a thicker line on the chart in my code. I find it just annoying.

Hello PMitchum,

I have no access myself to change the help guide, our IT has to do that. I have not sent any requests to change the help guide. I promise it has not changed.
