Hi, When using sc.UseTool(), with DrawingType = DRAWING_TEXT, it makes a line of text appear on the graph. Is there a way to determine the height of this line in terms of ticks (which can dramatically change depending on the timeframe). I need this value to keep my charts clean and avoid the overlapping of text from different sc.UseTool requests. Thank you for your answer, Thomas |

You can only control the height of text through the s_Usetool::FontSize member and this controls the height in what are called Points. This is a Windows unit which is translated to pixels based upon the DPI setting for the system.
