Hey John, thanks, I am impressed: thanks for the quick resolution and implementation. Although, strangely, drawing GDT_CANDLESTICK in ACSIL did resolve it, as it seems to follow the Numbers Bars regardless of the Spacing Adjustment Value.

With regards to setting the font size, I did in fact use s_UseTool::FontSize, but this accepts an integer. I would like to assign this to a reference scaling parameter (eg highest price shown in the chart - lowest price shown in the chart times a coefficient), to achieve a similar effect to "minimum" and "maximum" font size. Nothing in ACS Source seems to suggest this has been implemented anywhere.

But did I get it correctly: SC under the hood leverages GDI to achieve font scaling? Cause it's certainly fast enough on my side. However I could not replicate font scaling at all using GDI.

Else, would it be easy to allow the ACSIL API to tap into the font scaling mechanism already implemented in studies like numbers bars?

Could be something like this: setting s_UseTool::MinFontSize and s_UseTool::MaxFontSize would override s_UseTool::FontSize and perform built-in font scaling
