Help needed for currency strength meter

[thenewguy3]

Hello everybody

I am trying to code my own currency strength meter.

The meter would draw a histogram of every currency in separate window.

So one windows for USD, one for EUR, one for JPY and so on ...

The strength part i coded and histogram works for all pairs

But i am having a problem on inserting picture objects in separate windows

I want to put country flag of each pair.

The code to insert .bmp works but when i add second strentgth indicator it repaints over the previous indicator flag like shown on attached images.

I tried the following code options:

  int my_seperate_usd =WindowFind("Dollar");

    ObjectCreate(0, "logo", OBJ_BITMAP_LABEL, my_seperate_usd, 0, 0);

    ObjectSetString(0, "logo", OBJPROP_BMPFILE, "\\Images\\USA.bmp");

    ObjectCreate(0, "logo", OBJ_BITMAP_LABEL, 0, 0, 0);

    ObjectSetString(0, "logo", OBJPROP_BMPFILE, "\\Images\\USA.bmp");

    ObjectCreate(0, "logo", OBJ_BITMAP_LABEL, 1, 0, 0);

    ObjectSetString(0, "logo", OBJPROP_BMPFILE, "\\Images\\USA.bmp");

Everytime it repaints over the first indicator flag.

Any help please

Thank you

Thank you

Use Alt+S when posting code - it looks like a mess all of it

Another tip, if no one helps you out here (we are no slaves) you can always post as a job in the Freelance section

i never said you were slaves

[Ernst Van Der Merwe]

string name="logo"+(string)ChartWindowFind();
ObjectCreate(0, name, OBJ_BITMAP_LABEL, my_seperate_usd, 0, 0);
ObjectSetString(0, name, OBJPROP_BMPFILE, "\\Images\\USA.bmp");
