Question about Drawing functions

[mbuta]

Can the same routine [a generic drawing shapes function] be called more than one time on the same bar to draw more than one shape [not even on the same bar]?

Example: On GapUp, I detect a Pivot Low, so I call the routine to draw the PivotLow [usually, 1-2 bar before the event]. Tthen same bar turns to be a Pivot High as well, so I call the same function again, [diferent parameters values] to draw the PivotHigh [on this bar].

It plots only one of them, whichever occurs last.
Is this a programming error on my part, or a limitation I need to know about?

Note: I even created a duplicate function, with diferent names for parameters, same result: only last DrawShape function ordered plot.

Thank you.

Mihai,

I do it all the time, you have a problem with your programming, preventing you from accomplishing this.

Steve,

I must be blinded somewhere. I thought I did it also before.
Can you please post a picture with what/how you do it?

Thank you.

Steve, thank you.
I will reduce the efs to this drawing part and I will post it, if the answer does not become obvious.
I do have other places where I draw multiple times [text] on the same bar, but this is the only place where I change [within same bar] the value of the parameter that decides what/where to plot. See the original mesage for details.
I am pretty sure I do not have "errors". Maybe I try what efs cannot do [and as documentation is so limitted ?!?!?]. We'll see.

Note: I have a temporary work around it, but I loose a clock [one bar]. As the problem is about Gaps at the open, one bar may mean missing the entire trade.

Thanks.
