How to create Gann Grid drawing from study

Hi,

I try to create a Gann Grid drawing from my study:



s_UseTool tool;

tool.ChartNumber = sc.ChartNumber;
tool.DrawingType = DRAWING_GANNGRID;

tool.BeginDateTime = sc.BaseDateTimeIn[sc.ArraySize - 40];
tool.EndDateTime = sc.BaseDateTimeIn[sc.ArraySize - 2];
//tool.BeginIndex = sc.ArraySize - 40;
//tool.EndIndex = sc.ArraySize - 2;
tool.BeginValue = sc.BaseDataIn[SC_LOW][sc.ArraySize - 40];
tool.EndValue = sc.BaseDataIn[SC_HIGH][sc.ArraySize - 2];

tool.UseToolConfigNum = 1;

tool.AddMethod = UTAM_ADD_OR_ADJUST;

int rr = sc.UseTool(tool);

but UseTool returns false (code works fine for DRAWING_RECTANGLEHIGHLIGHT).
Is it possible to create this drawing? or I do something wrong?

Thanks.

Many thanks for the support.

Can you give us an idea of when we can expect something to work with?

I need to plan development work and would like to understand if I should table the current effort in favor of something else.

regards,

Hmm. I've spec'd, and Trade29 is developing, a custom study that needs to draw an object using the gann grid tool, where the first and second point needed to draw the object are calculated (i.e., not clicks via user interaction).

If you need more technical info, the Trade29 guys will need to answer.

You've stated you're adding support the DRAWING_GANNGRID drawing type (thank you!), and I'm asking when can we expect it to be supported? Are we talking days? weeks? months?

regards,
shane

We can do this in days if it is not already done.

In the next version, DRAWING_GANNGRID is supported in UseTool. Also, there is a new example study showing the use of the Gann Grid: "UseTool Example: GannGrid" which is in scsf_UseToolExampleGannGrid() in studies.cpp.
