Hi, c++ has a function printf() which prints text or variables to a log somewhere. Where is the log on Sierra chart, I just want to keep track of some variables and other things as the code is running. Is this the right way to do it, or is there something else? e.g. if a candle makes a higher high, I want to print "Made new higher high" or something. Thanks!

Thanks for that! I see the log now. However, I think it may because i'm using historical data and not live data but I'm only seeing the log once, how do I see it on every calculation of the study ie/ every tick or candle close (depending on when the study is calculated)?

Ahh, I think its to do with the second arg int. I'll look into it more.

Hi, is it possible to set the text or background color for each message with this function ?
