Object types and properties

New comment
 
Is there a crosswalk somewhere to whow which object properties can be used with which types? If so, could you post it somewhere? Some are obvious, but many times I have to write a quick little script to see what works with what.

The documentation needs to be made more complete. For example, when I started I couldn't tell from the documentation the difference getween OBJ_TEXT and OBJ_LABEL. They both said something like "Text. Uses 1 coordinate" That is only minimally helpful to someone starting out. The documentation should define what each is used for, and say which properties can be applied to each, with examples. Some commands oly make sense in EAs, others in indicators. This should be in the documentation.

It's my belief that if the documentation were more complete, the new people would adapt the platform more easily. It would become more popular, and metaquotes would have more installations/sales.
 
Unfortunately such crosstable is not exist
All the objects can be created programmatically and manually. For clearness first create some object manually and see its properties. You can set the same properties programmatically.
