The behaviour of drawTextPixel in eSignal V10.1 has changed. Text drawn with Text.ONTOP is no longer on top of price bars etc. In version 10.0 text was drawn on top. Is there a new parameter or is this a bug ?

Re: drawTextPixel bug?

Actually the bug was in version 10.0 which was incorrectly applying drawTextPixel [and also setBarBgColor] on top of the price bars. Version 10.1 restores the original functionality where ONTOP is intended as the topmost layer of the study and not of the chart (see the screenshot enclosed below which was captured using version 8.0).
Note that starting with version 10.1 you can modify [through the Edit Studies dialog box] the z-order of the studies running in a chart ie you can set any study to be the topmost layer within that chart. This will allow you to display the text on top of price bars/candles
Regardless if you would like to submit a suggestion to enhance the functionality of this and/or other functions you can do that by selecting Support-> Make a Suggestion in the main menu of the eSignal program

Alex,
I altered the Z order in edit formula and it works well enough. Thanks for your help.
