Developing Value Area in 8.5 Beta

Are their any new reserve words, or something else, that will allow me to get to the value area high/low and point of control from a PowerLanguage indicator? I want to be able to plot the current value area high/low as each bar of a chart is formed--what is called a developing value area in other sy...

Re: Example of C++ wrapper to .NET

Thanks for the link. However what I am trying to do is Pre-"MC.NET" technology. In other words it uses C++ wrapper to call a .NET COM assembly.

Example of C++ wrapper to .NET

I am trying to port an application from TS to MC. The application uses a C++ wrapper to call a .NET com object (written in VB.NET). Everything works fine in TS and has for many months. But I crash MC when I try to run it and close a workspace/window. The MC development team says the problem is in my...

Platform Identification in Power Language

Is there a PL variable or function (e.g. GetAppInfo(xxx)) that I can use to determine whether my code is running on MultiCharts or TS? I've identified some minor behavorial differences between RadarScreen and Scanner that require slightly different code and would sure like to maintain a single code ...

Chart Updating Order

Is there a way to force an indicator (or signal) on one chart/workspace to update before indicator on another chart/workspace? I'm using a "Provider" workspace/chart to populate an ELCollection. On a separate "Retriever" workspace/chart I am retrieving data from the Collection and plotting it. The "...

Re: Parameters for Complex Chart Types from PL

I've looked at BarType_ex for various chart types and find a difference between what is posted above and what the keyword returns. Can someone verify which is correct?

Re: Parameters for Complex Chart Types from PL

I'm already using bartype_ex. But that does not tell me the box size. I need that to differentiate between same chart types (e.g. Point/Figure) with different sizes.

See attached photo for the information I am interested in getting to from PL

Parameters for Complex Chart Types from PL

I use the ELCollections to pass data from one chart to another. For simple time-based charts I have identified the collection name with just symbol-bartype-barinterval type identifier. I want to make the code work with more complex chart types, e.g. Renko and Point-figure. From PL, how do I get to t...

Re: GetUserId/CustomerId from DLL

Thanks, I'll just set a local PL variable to the GetUserId function and grab it within the DLL. As you can tell I'm a new MC user but I have many years of experience with TS-EZL. Is the number from GetUserId the value I should be using for checking for a valid user of my software? or is there someth...

GetUserId/CustomerId from DLL

How can I get to something within a DLL that is unique to customer or computer running MultiCharts. I have found that, as reported in forums, the following code (VB.net) works fine in TS but returns 0 in MC. I don't know how to reference GetUserId within DLL. I don't really want to set a variable in...
