TL_SetStyle Bug

[aaa]

Hello everybody !

It tooks long time and investigations before I've found a bug which slowed down mysteriously but dramatically MC

In my pivot script I've added these lines

inputs:
...
PivotStyle( 2 ), // or 3
PivotSize ( 4 ),

...

TL_SetStyle(TL_PP, PivotStyle);
TL_SetSize(TL_PP, PivotPPSize );

Execpt 1 ( Tool_Solid ________________ )

all the others styles values must never be more than 1 !

Hope that it helps

that's because there is an error in coding: the code is adding a NEW trendline at every bar. the dotted line you see is not a dotted line... each dot is actually a trendline; if you click on the dot, you can drag the dot out and see the trendline.

You were right Tams and I don't know why I haven't read this post before = I should wear glasses, or stop drinking !!!



In a script, If we add

TL_SetSize(Value99, 4 ); // 4 is an example, in fact a thickness more than 0

to a trendLine (value99) Dashed or Dotted

It transforms each Dash or Dot in an object

Pivots starts to be heavy to manage for the GPU/CPU

This is why it is not possible to increase the weight in the format study (?)



I hope that my post is clearest now and I'll be please to clearer it more if needed.

Sincerely Yours

First thing first... the picture above is for PLOT, not trendline.

that's because there is an error in coding: the code is adding a NEW trendline at every bar. <-- I mean it should not be doing it. It should draw ONE line and that's it. the dotted line you see is not a dotted line... each dot is actually a trendline; if you click on the dot, you can drag the dot out and see the trendline.

go to your chart...

click on your trendline... hold down the mouse... and DRAG the line away.

what do you see?

do you see another line there?

do you see another line there?

Before = Yes = CPU > 40 %

Now = No = CPU < 10 %
