MQL5 Trading Tools (Part 15): Canvas Blur Effects, Shadow Rendering, and Smooth Mouse Wheel Scrolling

MQL5 Trading Tools (Part 15): Canvas Blur Effects, Shadow Rendering, and Smooth Mouse Wheel Scrolling

In our previous article (Part 14), we developed a pixel-perfect, scrollable text canvas in MetaQuotes Language 5 (MQL5) that features antialiasing for smooth rendering, a rounded scrollbar with interactive controls, and customizable backgrounds for enhanced dashboard usability. In Part 15, we advance the canvas dashboard by incorporating blur effects for fog gradients, shadow rendering for depth in headers, and smooth mouse wheel scrolling for seamless text navigation.

In this article, we enhance the MQL5 canvas dashboard with advanced visual effects, including blur gradients for fog overlays, shadow rendering for headers, and antialiased drawing for smoother lines and curves. We add smooth mouse wheel scrolling to the text panel that does not interfere with the chart zoom scale, technically an upgrade.
