Post From: ACSIL : save image per closed bar ?

Hi, Is it possible to save an image in ACSIL, each time a study function returns to Sierra code ? (I use using sc.SaveChartImageToFileExtended). The documentation states that if the save function is called multiple times during a call into a study function, only the most recent call will be processed. If I understand correctly, it means an image can be saved after after each call into a study function. For example, I could do screenshot once per closed bar. Unfortunately, this does not work, only the last image was saved, which means I do not understand the documentation, or that something is wrong with the save function. Please advise. Here is a small study for making a screenshot per closed bar to illustrate the problem. #include "sierrachart.h" SCDLLName("SSTest") SCSFExport scsf_SSTest(SCStudyGraphRef sc) { if (sc.SetDefaults) { sc.GraphName = "SCTest"; sc.AutoLoop = 1; return; } // compute once per bar if (sc.GetBarHasClosedStatus(sc.Index) != BHCS_BAR_HAS_CLOSED) return; // make a screenshot, format is <symbol>.<barnumber>.png SCString _imageFileName; _imageFileName.Format("%s.%d.png", sc.Symbol.GetChars(), sc.Index); sc.SaveChartImageToFileExtended(sc.ChartNumber, _imageFileName, 0, 0, 0); } -- W |
