Modifies the location of a text object with the specified ID number; returns a value of 0 if the location of the object was successfully modified, and a value of -2 if the specified object ID number is invalid.

Usage

Text_SetLocation (ObjectID, BarDate, BarTime, PriceValue)

Parameters

ObjectID - a numerical expression specifying the object ID number

BarDate - a numerical expression specifying the date of the bar at which the object is to be placed; the date is indicated in the YYYMMdd format, where YYY is the number of years since 1900, MM is the month, and dd is the day of the month

BarTime - a numerical expression specifying the time of the bar at which the object is to be placed; the time is indicated in the 24-hour HHmm format, where 1300 = 1:00 PM

PriceValue - a numerical expression specifying the price value (vertical position, corresponding to a value on the price scale of a chart), where the object is to be placed

Notes

An object-specific ID number is returned by Text_New when the text object is created.

Example

Move the text object with an ID number of 3 to the top of the current bar:

Value1=Text_SetLocation(3,Date,Time,High);
