Text ON chart

[Morteza Khorasani]

Hello

I‌ placed a text object on chart

B‌ut only a part of my text is shown on the chart. ‌ And it only occupies halp of the chart width.

‌

ObjectCreate(objname3, OBJ_LABEL, 0, 0, 0);
   ObjectSet(objname3, OBJPROP_XDISTANCE, x3);
   ObjectSet(objname3, OBJPROP_YDISTANCE, y3);
   ObjectSet("ObjName", OBJPROP_CORNER, 0);
   ObjectSetText(objname3,"Running on wrong account. This Expert is only valid for Real account number: "+Demo1, 15, "Arial", clrDeepSkyBlue);

‌I have on the chart:

Running on wrong account. This Expert is only valid for Real ac

a‌nd the rest is not printed.

I'm not sure what the limit is, but you can only use so many characters

As @Keith Watford stated, there is a limit of 63 Characters (see following forum topic):

Short answer: limit object names and text to a maximum of 63 characters.

This script builds off your example and shows what happens when you try to exceed 63 characters for the name or text:

#include <stdlib.mqh>

int start()
   {
   // Works, no truncation
   WriteLN( "A", 
            "NA1234567890123456789012345678901234567890123456789012345678901",   // name = 63 Characters
            "TA1234567890123456789012345678901234567890123456789012345678901",   // text = 63 Characters
            Red,
            0,
            50);
   
   // name is truncated to 63 characters, object can't be found when called with 64 character name
   WriteLN( "B", 
            "NB12345678901234567890123456789012345678901234567890123456789012",  // name = 64 Characters
            "TB1234567890123456789012345678901234567890123456789012345678901",   // text = 63 Characters
            Yellow,
            0,
            100);

   // text is truncated to 63 characters         
   WriteLN( "C", 
            "NC1234567890123456789012345678901234567890123456789012345678901",   // name = 63 Characters
            "TC12345678901234567890123456789012345678901234567890123456789012",  // text = 64 Characters
            Lime,
            0,
            150);
   
   }

void WriteLN(string trial, string name, string text, color clr, int xDist, int yDist)
   {   
   if (ObjectFind(name)==-1) ObjectCreate(name, OBJ_LABEL, 0,0,0);
   Print(trial, "-Create: ", ErrorDescription(GetLastError()));
   
   ObjectSetText(name,text,10,"Courier New",Moccasin);
   Print(trial, "-SetText: ", ErrorDescription(GetLastError()));
   
   ObjectSet(name, OBJPROP_COLOR, clr);
   Print(trial, "-SetColor: ", ErrorDescription(GetLastError()));
   
   ObjectSet(name, OBJPROP_XDISTANCE, xDist);
   Print(trial, "-SetX: ", ErrorDescription(GetLastError()));
   
   ObjectSet(name, OBJPROP_YDISTANCE, yDist);
   Print(trial, "-SetY: ", ErrorDescription(GetLastError()));
   }
