Very nice! Thank you.

Nice to see it helped you.

You're Very Welcome.

Though This code is not very efficient thus should not be used in a full fledged EA/Indicator, In the next part, I will focus on making is more efficient by using classes and .mqh files, That will also contribute to a well written code.

It's good to hear you liked, Thanks.

 
Awesome! I've been looking for this solution for days...Thank you!
Could you please give an example where there are multiple rectangle labels on the same chart, and you can move them separately? (I want to hide and replace the MT5 default trade levels (pending order lines, TP, SL) with rectangle labels and horizontal lines, and want to move pending orders by dragging the reactangle labels or the horizontal line attached to it.) Thanks

Loved the article. Thank you.

I am looking forward to its continuation.


P.S. Three years ago you had absolutely no knowledge of MQL, and now you are writing articles on programming. You are very good!!!

I am glad you enjoyed it.

Thanks for your comment, you motivated me to write the next article.

PS: You might want to read the second part, although it's not translated yet. Thanks again.
 
Great article!  I'm looking forward to the next one but have not seen it.  I'm hoping the next article will demonstrate placing objects e.g. text buttons panels etc on the dashboard.  Ot would also be very helpful to have the dashboard enameled so that other instances of it could be placed on the "mother" as children.

I am glad you liked my article. I hope you like second part too but no, adding text buttons to panels is not covered in second part, it's covered in 3rd part. 3rd Part will be published in a few days.
