How to set isGlobal and Brush to a Draw.Line object?

[arbeydario]

Hi, i need to set isGlobal=true and a Brush, DashStyle and Width attributes to a draw.line but i cant find a way to do this

im trying with Draw.Line(NinjaScriptBase owner, string tag, bool isAutoScale, DateTime startTime, double startY, DateTime endTime, double endY, Brush brush, DashStyleHelper dashStyle, int width) but i cant set global=true

and trying with Draw.Line(NinjaScriptBase owner, string tag, bool isAutoScale, int startBarsAgo, double startY, int endBarsAgo, double endY, bool isGlobal, string templateName) but cant find a way to set Brush, DashStyle and Width

Can you help me?

Hello arbeydario,

Unfortunately, drawing objects can only be made global with the method call by using the proper overload signature.

Draw.Line(NinjaScriptBase owner, string tag, bool isAutoScale, int startBarsAgo, double startY, int endBarsAgo, double endY, bool isGlobal, string templateName)
Draw.Line(NinjaScriptBase owner, string tag, bool isAutoScale, DateTime startTime, double startY, DateTime endTime, double endY, bool isGlobal, string templateName)

Once created, a drawing object cannot be changed to be global (or local).
However, you can change other properties of the object.

Hello arbeydario,

Draw.Line(NinjaScriptBase owner, string tag, bool isAutoScale, int startBarsAgo, double startY, int endBarsAgo, double endY, bool isGlobal, string templateName)

Line myLine = Draw.Line(this, "tag1", false, 10, 1000, 0, 1001, true, string.Empty);
myLine.Brush = Brushes.Blue;

Hi Chelsea,

it does not work

MesiasIndicatorcs;'Line' does not contain a definition for 'Brush' and no accessible extension method 'Brush' accepting a first argument of type 'Line' could be found (are you missing a using directive or an assembly reference?);CS1061;502;14;
MesiasIndicatorcs;'Line' does not contain a definition for 'DashStyleHelper' and no accessible extension method 'DashStyleHelper' accepting a first argument of type 'Line' could be found (are you missing a using directive or an assembly reference?);CS1061;503;14;
MesiasIndicatorcs;'Line' does not contain a definition for 'Width' and no accessible extension method 'Width' accepting a first argument of type 'Line' could be found (are you missing a using directive or an assembly reference?);CS1061;504;14;

Hello arbeydario,

This is unexpected and I was able to reproduce.

I will need to report this to our developers.

(Just as a note, this should be the proper way. Another example of this that does work on Dot drawing objects can be found here.

Thanks Chelsea, I will be waiting when you inform me that they corrected it.

Hello arbeydario,

Try the following:

Line myLine = Draw.Line(this, "tag1", false, 10, 1000, 0, 1001, true, string.Empty);
myLine.Stroke.Brush = Brushes.Blue;
