Hi,

iam coding a custom study where i use s_UseTool to display certain volumes in bars on my chart. Study works but at some point newly generated text on new bars is getting blurry. Also, when too much blurry generated text gets on the chart, the whole chart performance (e.g. scrolling) gets very slow and choppy. Manually recalculating (F5) the chart solves the problem. Obviously i dont want to press F5 every time.

I tried to turn off opengl, but no changes. Any ideas what i could do? Does it have to do something with the font type? or even font size?

Thanks

All of this is related to the text being continually added in the same place.
In other words you are not just adding the text once, but many, many times - i.e. each time the study updates.

thanks for your answer.

but what i dont get is that the blurriness is starting at some random point. not all newly generated texts are blurry.

anyway: i will look into my code and will try to fix it

Yes do not add text more than once to a chart column. Unless there is a specific reason why like at different levels on the vertical axis.
