Study Title

[bandraguy]

function preMain()
{
setPriceStudy(true);
setStudyTitle("Woodies Color LSMA");
setCursorLabelName("LSMA");
setDefaultBarThickness(2);
setDefaultBarFgColor(Color.blue);
}



From the above example, how do I make the 'setStudyTitle' appear in the top left corner of my chart or anywhere else on the chart.

This study title shows up in mid-center of my chart and makes it difficult to read the chart, when size of the chart made smaller.

Thanks for reply.

As far as I can see here your sample code is placing the study title in the top left corner

How do I paste a copy of my chart to show you?

I am running more than 2 efs files to plot my indicators. I should have mentioned in my post.

Thanks for prompt reply.

Use the Attach File button which you can find scrolling down the page when you are composing the message.

My chart file is an ach file and it is not letting me attach file with that extension.

Thanks again for your prompt reply.

You need to attach a screenshot of the chart not the chart itself.

I don't know how to post the snapshot of my ach extension chart. I called the support, even they couldn't help me out. They are getting back to me later in the day.

Meanwhile, if you can tell me, how to post the snapshot of my ach extension chart/screen onto this reply box, I would appreciate it.

Thanks

Right click the chart, select Send Image To->Local File.
A window similar to the one shown below will open. Set the path where you want to save the image, assign a name of your choice and click OK (use the enclosed image as an example).
Then when you are composing your reply in the Bulletin Board click the Attach File button and navigate to where you saved the image, select the image and click Open in the dialog box.

Hope this helps.

Thanks again.

you have several other studies in there that do not have SetStudyTitle on.

How do I move study title in the top left corner of this chart? I am running multiple efs files here to plot my indicators.

File # 1 code:

function preMain()
{
setPriceStudy(true);
setStudyTitle("Woodies Color LSMA");
setCursorLabelName("LSMA");
setDefaultBarThickness(2);
setDefaultBarFgColor(Color.blue);
}


File # 2 code:

function preMain() {
setStudyTitle("Keltner(8)");
setPriceStudy(true);
setCursorLabelName("K-Upper", 0);
setCursorLabelName("K-Basis", 1);
setCursorLabelName("K-Lower", 2);

I just noticed that the apparent empty spaces are due to a bug which is hiding the study titles of the Basic Studies (ie non efs studies) you have loaded in the chart.
At this time the solution would be to reload first all of the efs then the Basic Studies. However once the issue is fixed you will then have the titles of the Basic Studies also visible on the chart.
Alternatively you can right click the chart, select Properties and uncheck Draw Study Titles. This will remove all the study titles from the chart

Just so you have the reference, I've just entered this into our eSignal Developers List (EDL #6129) to begin tracking this issue.

Hey bandraquy,

I get the same thing - I didn't know it was a glitch. If the EFS study titles interfere with your chart too much, maybe you could shorten the titles to K8 and LSMA?

[bandraguy]

I took Alexis suggestions and it worked out well. I deleted all studies and loaded efs files before all other basic studies.

Thank you all for quick replies and great suggestions.
