Hi folks. I hope you are well. I need some help.
I picked up a drag and drop Indi (D&D H-LINE.mq4 ) for drawing a color coded horizontal line and placing a description on it here: http://www.forexfactory.com/showthre...76#post6421976

However, the description is aligned to the left. I would like it to be aligned to the right. Any help is appreciated.

Got your PM. I don't understand what you mean by "placeholder", or exactly what it is that you're asking.

Anyway, try the attached. However, first press F8 in MT4, go to the Common tab, and check 'Show object descriptions' ON.

As I've already indicated, MT4 always places the object description at the left of the object. Also, it does not allow you to change the alignment, color, font or size of the text.

That's the best I can do in the time that I've got available. Unfortunately, FF does not pay me to code solutions for members on their...
