I noticed there is a new member: Graphics Functions,

I am wondering would I eventually be able to draw a horizontal
line from pixel A to pixel B, instead of Dates/Times or Indexes?

(Vertical line is never a problem, because I can set whatever
chart value I want)

No rush at all, I am just wondering will there be sample codes
in the document?

Thanks so much!

Awesome! I followed the code in /ACS_Source/GDIExample.cpp
The drawing itself works great! But I couldn't figure out
how to draw a line underneath Main Graph and Studies, need
some help. Right now the line is above everything.

Thanks so much!

Got it, I was confusing myself, my main study needs to be above
Main Graph, I put drawing into a new custom study and set the
new study as "Underneath Main Price Graph", problem solved.

Thanks so much! I really feel sorry to make work such a late time
of the day.

Have a good night!
