Help editing an indicator

[several]

I want to change the font used by an indicator which draws fixed text on the chart, the problem is I cannot find a single reference anywhere in the code to the font or the text size. The font it's drawing is too big.

The code that draws the text is this:

OnRender()
protected override void OnRender(ChartControl chartControl, ChartScale chartScale)
{
if(!ViewText || State < State.Realtime)
{
return;
}

if(chartControl == null || chartScale == null || ChartBars == null)
{
return;
}

base.OnRender(chartControl, chartScale);

Text = String.Format(
"Count: {0} Width: {1} Space: {2}",
ChartBars.ToIndex - ChartBars.FromIndex + 1,
chartControl.BarWidth.ToString("0.00"),
chartControl.Properties.BarDistance.ToString("0.00 ")
);

Draw.TextFixed(this, "ZoomReset_Text", Text, Positioner);
}
endregion

If I create a simple font and then add more parameters to Draw.TextFixed such as the Brushes.Color I get an error saying:

brushes do not exist in this context

Hello several,

Thank you for your post.

You should be able to use the following syntax to specify a font and font size for Draw.TextFixed():

Draw.TextFixed(NinjaScriptBase owner, string tag, string text, TextPosition textPosition, Brush textBrush, SimpleFont font, Brush outlineBrush, Brush areaBrush, int areaOpacity)

Specify a SimpleFont object to use that has defined your font and font size.

I was able to achieve this in an indicator script from within OnRender. Please see the attached test script.

Hello, thanks for the reply. I already tried exactly this before I made the post and it gives the error 'brushes do not exist in this context'. It does not seem to like the use of Brushes.Color

This is the indicator.

You're missing the using statement in order to use Brushes.

using System.Windows.Media;
