hey guys, can somebody help me out? i have tried various combinations of OBJPROP_ANCHOR, OBJPROP_YDISTANCE, etc. i am trying to line up the text with the fib line. as you can see, it is below and too far right. i would like to center it with the fib line and move to the left. what am i missing?? ObjectDelete("IN_BT1_Tex");//this sets text at IntraDay_Fib_DLong!!!! ObjectCreate(0,"IN_BT1_Tex",OBJ_TEXT,0,0,0); ObjectSet("IN_BT1_Tex", OBJPROP_TIME1, curTime+shift); ObjectSet("IN_BT1_Tex", OBJPROP_PRICE1, Intraday_Fib_BT1); // ObjectSetInteger(0,"IN_BT1_Tex",OBJPROP_ANCHOR,ANCHOR_CENTER);...

ObjectSetInteger(0,"IN_BT1_Tex",OBJPROP_ANCHOR,ANCHOR_RIGHT);

can you guys help me out with "TIME" when trying to add a vertical line? i'm trying to put a vertical line at today, 8:00. i'm using the following: dt_1= StrToTime("2017.25.00 08:00"); but when i check the properties of the line, it shows 2017.12.01 00:00. what is the trick?

{quote} All works as expected Used this code for testing : #property indicator_chart_window #property indicator_buffers 0 #property indicator_plots 0 int OnInit() { return(0); } void OnDeinit(const int reason) { } int OnCalculate (const int rates_total, const int prev_calculated, const datetime& time[], const double& open[], const double& high[], const double& low[], const double& close[], const long& tick_volume[], const long& volume[], const int& spread[]) { datetime dt_1= StrToTime("2017.10.25 16:00"); string _name = "_test"; ObjectCreate(0,_name,OBJ_VLINE,0,0,0);...

{quote} so it looks like you are creating the line. then moving it to the right time? is that right? does that make a difference?

{quote} I don't know what do you men by "make a difference" since I have no idea what code are you using, but in any case I am not moving it I am simply assigning the correct time to the time part of the object - that is all ObjectMove() is completely different function

Here is another example...#include <ChartObjects\ChartObjectsLines.mqh> void PlotVlineAtEight() { static CChartObjectVLine eight_line; MqlDateTime time_struct; TimeCurrent(time_struct); time_struct.hour=8; time_struct.min=0; time_struct.sec=0; datetime time = StructToTime(time_struct); if(eight_line.ChartId() < 0) eight_line.Create(0,"eight_line",0,0); if(eight_line.Time(0) != time) eight_line.Time(0,time); }
