How to set text position different from standard options

[facuevasm]

Hello guys,

Im using Draw.TextFixed() inside my strat code, I wonder if it is possible to select the text position other than;

TextPosition.BottomLeft

TextPosition.BottomRight

TextPosition.Center

TextPosition.TopLeft

TextPosition.TopRight

Im currently using BottomLeft, but my box is overlaping Ninjatrader logo. Is there any way I can move it a little bit above?

Thank you!

Hello facuevasm,

You would need to make your own drawing tool to support different options. At the core of the Draw.TextFixed it uses OnRender to render the text, you would have to do the same in a new drawing tool but add your specific rendering options that you wanted to support.

Alternatively don't use the TextFixed too and just use OnRender from your indicator to draw the text directly. You can find a sample of rendering text here: https://ninjatrader.com/support/help...htsub=onrender

Rendering uses X/Y coordinates so you would calculate the x/y for wherever in the panel you wanted it to be placed.
