Is there a known problem with use tool. The moment I enable sc.UseTool(Tool) (see below) SC freezes: s_UseTool Tool; Tool.Clear(); // Reset tool structure. Good practice but unnecessary in this case. Tool.ChartNumber = sc.ChartNumber; Tool.DrawingType = DRAWING_TEXT; Tool.BeginIndex = sc.IndexOfLastVisibleBar-5; Tool.BeginValue = 1.1742; // sc.High[sc.Index]; Tool.Color = RGB(0, 0, 0); Tool.AddMethod = UTAM_ADD_OR_ADJUST; Tool.MarkerType = MARKER_X; Tool.MarkerSize = 10; Tool.LineWidth = 10; Tool.Text.Format("Test"); //sc.UseTool(Tool); My intention is to have different strings at different locations in the chart. Do I need a new tool for every string or is it possible to create different strings at different locations with one tool ? |

There is no problem with that code. The issue you are having must be somewhere else in your code causing this. The issue would have to be in your own code somewhere else. You do need a different drawing instance for each text string you want. Sierra Chart Support - Engineering Level Your definitive source for support. Other responses are from users.
