Hello and happy new year. What is the best method to obtain the Y-axis coordinate for a specific price or market depth level on the DOM? I'm using sc.GetDOMColumnLeftCoordinate() to fetch the X-axis coordinate successfully, but I do not see a way to find Y-axis coordinates for price levels or market depth levels in the documentation?My use case is that I am using the Windows GDI to add custom text in the DOM column General Purpose 1 and need to align text vertically on the Y-axis based on price or market depth from inside market. Thank you in advance! Happy New Year! |

ACSIL Interface Members - Functions: sc.RegionValueToYPixelCoordinate() This just returns the Y-axis coordinate of where my mouse pointer is, not of specific price levels. Do you have an example of how to use this with price or market depth levels? |

This is nonsense. int RegionValueToYPixelCoordinate (float RegionValue, int ChartRegionNumber); The sc.RegionValueToYPixelCoordinate function calculates the Y-axis pixel coordinate for the given RegionValue and the zero-based ChartRegionNumber which specifies the Chart Region. RegionValue will be a value within the Scale Range of the specified Chart Region. ChartRegionNumber is zero-based. The returned y-coordinate is in relation to the chart window itself. RegionValue can be any value you choose, it just happens that the example given uses 'sc.ActiveToolYValue'. For instance: int YPixelCoordinate = sc.RegionValueToYPixelCoordinate(sc.Close[sc.Index], sc.GraphRegion);

Thank you very much for your help, I didn't know what other values were acceptable for that first argument. This is fantastic, thank you again and happy new year.
