Count number of Horizontal Lines

[Rainmakersg]

Hi,

I would like to count the number of horizontal lines on my chart.

I could count the total number of drawn objects using DrawObjects.Count, but I could not find a way to count the number of horizontal lines.

My purpose is to detect if more than 1 horizontal line is present.

Any assistance is greatly appreciated.

Hello Rainmakersg,

Apologies, our forum is having technical issues that is currently being worked out by our IT.

The url bltdavid was trying to provide is in text below.

You could also loop through the DrawObjects collection and compare the object to HorizontalLine.

Increment an Int (integer) to count the number of times this matches in the loop.
