SC Team - At present you have relative(Tool.UseRelativeValue) values for Y Scale(0-100).

Is there anything similar available for X Scale?

Due to lack of "far right" option for TOOL_TEXT - potentially changing bar space or fill space would impact the text display and trying to find a reliable way to display the text - even if bar space is compressed/expanded.

Thanks

SC Team - Thanks for the reply. However offset of -1, -2.. etc area different from FAR Right. FAR right would ALWAYS make the text touch the right edge of the main graph area and doesn't depend on the bar space or fill space.

In case of using -1, -2 etc would make it depend on the bar space - which is precisely trying to avoid.

For example - You have an option - for VBP - display far Right (attached image) - something like this - would like to have for TOOL_TEXT as well.

Would you please review?

Thanks

No. You are missing what the documentation says. You need to use a value of 1 to 150 for the Begin/EndDateTime.

SC Team - My apologies. Can't believe I missed that doc. You have thought through all possible cases.. really appreciate it :)

I am set for now(except for highlighting the price - LL_DISPLAY_VALUE | LL_VALUE_ALIGN_VALUES_SCALE | LL_VALUE_ALIGN_CENTER - which I can get used to) and you can take your own time related to GDI space :)

Thanks
