Also, we decided that as far as including hidden Subgraphs, that will be an option. Not by default. In the prerelease 1671, if i add a new study, hidden Subgraphs still have the Include in Summary option enabled by default.

Small issue: The option Include Hidden Subgraphs works but there is not visible "check" in the Settings tab if it is enable.

In response to post #49 here is the documentation: ACSIL Interface Members - sc.Subgraph Array: sc.Subgraph[].IncludeInStudySummary In response to post #50, this will always be the case. In response to post #51, this is resolved. Sierra Chart Support - Engineering Level Your definitive source for support. Other responses are from users.

Sierra Chart, Can you add an option to hide displaying a Study Name in the Study Summary Window?

Currently, if the Alert Condition Formulas in a study is TRUE, then there is highlighted all cells belong to all subgraphs from this study. So, can you change/add option so as to highlighted only one cell that belongs to the subgraph where occur the Alert? I would like to know exactly which subgraph the alert comes from.

Alerts are not specific to individual Subgraphs but to the entire study itself. This is something we cannot do. Sierra Chart Support - Engineering Level Your definitive source for support.

I understand. And, can you add a possibility to highlighted the background of a study by ACSIL without using the Alert Condition Formulas? And additionaly a possibility to set color of the background regardless of other studies and charts?

As a follow-up to #58 above, please consider making the color background (generated on individual charts based on alert conditions) appear on the Study Summary Window (SSW). It would be nice to be able to just capture the generated colors on the SSW without any additional SSW alert settings (instead of 0 or 1). Please see screenshot (attached). Thank you. http://www.sierrachart.com/image.php?Image=1514149705784.png Date Time Of Last Edit: 2017-12-24 21:14:08

And, can you add a possibility to highlighted the background of a study by ACSIL without using the Alert Condition Formulas? This is already supported by using sc.SetAlert(). consider making the color background (generated on individual charts based on alert conditions) appear on the Study Summary Window (SSW). It would be nice to be able to just capture the generated colors on the SSW without any additional SSW alert settings (instead of 0 or 1). Do you mean when the Color Background Based on Alert Condition study is returning TRUE/1 for the last chart bar, that you want the background coloring on the Study Summary window for its Subgraph to match the coloring used by that Study Subgraph?

Precisely, yes. The Summary Study Window will simply capture the background color (Color Background Based on Alert Condition study) already generated by alert conditions on the chart. Thank you.

And, can you add a possibility to highlighted the background of a study by ACSIL without using the Alert Condition Formulas? Sierra Chart: This is already supported by using sc.SetAlert(). I can't find any documentation about it, so probably i was not enough precisely. I meant to add a possibility to highlighted the background of a study (and the best only one subgraph) in the Study Summary Window by ACSIL, without using the Alert Condition Formulas on the Alerts tab in the Study Settings window for the study. Also, I would like that when the highlighting of the background in the Study Summary Window is triggered then no message is added to the Alerts Log. Argumentation: I have studies that use function sc.PlaySound for adding my special text messages to the Alerts Log without any standard messages. And if a standard message is added eg. by the Alert Condition Formulas then it disturb these my text messages. Also, It would be excellent to be able to set any color of the background in the Study Summary Window by ACSIL if the highlighting of the background in SWW is triggered by ACSIL. Thank you

You can do alert background highlighting in the Study Summary window by using sc.SetAlert with the associated study. Refer to the documentation for that function. The requests in post #63 is beyond the bounds of what we are willing to get involved with. This is getting distant from the Study Summary window intent. We will wait a few months and wait for more feedback and reevaluate at that time. Sierra Chart Support - Engineering Level Your definitive source for support. Other responses are from users.

Is the function described in post #62 available without the use of ASCIL? See attached, this is a good example of how it would be useful to use the colors from the study to paint the Studu Summary. The color background studies in this image are blue, red, and grey - but the "true" alert is only blue. Date Time Of Last Edit: 2017-12-27 12:56:57

I have already read this documentation (sc.SetAlert()) several times and found NOTHING about how to highlighted the background of the Study Summary Window by using sc.SetAlert. Maybe I do not understand something, so could you quote the right fragment that describes how to do it?

OK now we understand what you are asking about. The Study Summary window will will use the set "Study Summary: Alert True Background" color for the displayed study Subgraphs for a study included in the Study Summary window, when the Alert Condition (alert state) is true for a study. An ACSIL study can set the alert state for it to true for the last bar by using code like the following. This assumes Automatic Looping is being used: if (sc.Index == sc.ArraySize -1) sc.SetAlert(1); The if statement is not really necessary but it makes it much more efficient.

Well, I hope in better way of synchronizing data across multiple chart types and timeframes as this is all stored all in one place... sort of. Study price overlay does not work as expected in this matter. For example, in case if I want to read only the last value, I need to read the whole array. I was hoping in reading just the actual value from the Summary Window instead of several arrays of values... hope this makes my dumb question more clear. Z.

For example, in case if I want to read only the last value, I need to read the whole array. I was hoping in reading just the actual value from the Summary Window instead of several arrays of values This is still not making sense to us because this is so simple and straightforward. To do this, refer to: ACSIL Programming Concepts: Using or Referencing Study/Indicator Data in an ACSIL Function It is fine to access the whole array. You then just simply access the last element at sc.ArraySize -1 (assuming the study is from the same chart). It is all very efficient. This is what the study summary window does internally.

Is there a way to get the Study Summary Window to display text? Tried TextDrawStyleText but it just displays the data plot[sc.Index] (currently just a value of 1 to get the text to draw). This would be a great addition to the tool so we could mimic TradeStation's RadarScreen. Seems like it should be do-able since the Name column displays texts, I just can't figure out how to make an indicator. Date Time Of Last Edit: 2018-01-04 17:12:06
