Title says it all, I'd like to be able to do stuff when specific zones are clicked on.
Thanks

See if these functions do what you need:
  int sc.BarIndexToXPixelCoordinate(int Index);

  int sc.RegionValueToYPixelCoordinate(float RegionValue, int ChartRegionNumber);

There are also structure members to get the current bar index and region value. We will get those in a moment.

not really, I would like to test if user clicks in a specified rectangle on the chart, so do test against (x,y) values in window coordinates

But those will give you the coordinates. We updated the documentation to show how that can be done.

This is kind of an indirect way of doing it but the data is available.

In any case we are going to add this to the next version:
sc.PointerVertWindowCoord;
sc.PointerHorzWindowCoord;

Got it in 1690, thanks, however the SC_DLL_VERSION was no increased so it will fail with no message on previous versions.
