After posting a message to service desk , asking for zoom in shortcut as in MT5 (which knows about "-" and "=" keys on first row on keyboard) they told me I need to use Shift + "=" to zoom in. huh? thats very intuitive, thanks but no thanks.  I

I try to port an indicator from MT5 to MT4, and this error is all over the place. for example: 'ENUM_APPLIED_VOLUME' - declaration without type        utils_mql5.mqh  353     69

Can we have black color the default in this text editor when writing in this forum? It's way more readable to read in black color Like this  Don't you think so

When in crosshair mode, the leftmost datetime appears on the time axis, which is nice, but, it would be even nicer to have it more in the background, so that, when we move the mouse in the left area of the chart, crosshair's own datetime would shadow

Hi, In the course of time, I created many buttons and edit text boxes, and I was wondering if it would be possible to add a tooltip or help text on mouse hover I searched documentation, I verified the properties of controls, and I found it's not

1. When I click on the chart, CHARTEVENT_CLICK fires, onClick() is launched 2. When I click on an object, CHARTEVENT_CLICK && CHARTEVENT_OBJECT_CLICK  are fired, both onClick() and onObjectClick() are launched  In case 2, How can I

I did no modifications, only updating MT5 as usual, I identified the issue. My indicator loads a dll. when I insert this indicator, the properties window appears fine, but when I click ok, MT5 crashes immediately I am stuck because I don't know where

I did some experiments with ChartTimeOnDropped(), and it returns the time belonging to previous bar  I saw that, If I wanted the position of a bar, I always have to click a little to the right, or even safer, to click one bar right, to get

When in crosshair mode, there's a date displayed in the bottom left corner of the chart , which obscures the crosshair's date when the crosshair is near the left side of the chart, I tried to understand what is the purpose of that date, or the use

I have this situation: double findStuff( double target, TMyStruct &left, TMyStruct &right, TMyStruct &_solution, double err= 0.0000001 ) {    TMyStruct cleft, cright;    cleft = left;    cright = right;

When hovering with the mouse over the objects (line objects more specifically), wouldn't be more useful to see the description of the objects ? not their names? Names have to unique. Descriptions can be anything.   Taking the case of text

I saw StringFormat doesn't print correctly a double as an int.  For example: printf ( StringFormat ( "int1=%i, int2=%d, double=%f" , 0.00356 , 0.00356*10000 , 0.00356 )); and it yields: int1= 1918647790 , int2=- 858993459 , double = 0.003560

Today I found all my open charts gone. Except 4m chart. What happened? It's very frustrating to see them go away. I just saw I can save profiles (my mistake here) What could have overwrite the default profile?    But it's there a

who uses unicode with only digits? is there anyone who uses this unicode style in financial data? client or developer? at least, we would be able to select the type of file to export , not being forced to export in a format which most of us cannot

I tried to open a file: f= FileOpen ( "ranges.log" , FILE_WRITE | FILE_CSV | FILE_ANSI ,delimiter= ',' ); but it throws error: 'delimiter' - undeclared identifier    

I am talking about levels having their own color. Some other charting softwares have this really nice feature. I played with Ninjatrader and Gannanalyst a little. But honestly, these 2 programs are so cumbersome when it comes to study charts that are

Is there a possibility to hide the news flags? They interfere with prices, and I cannot see the low prices, when both price and flag occupy the same area It would be nice to have a checkbox somewhere to decide to display the news flags. Anyone else

Since last update I cannot edit or create any object MT5 simply crashes and closes down. I've installed it again (over previous installation) but still the problem persists. Any thoughts? 

wouldn't be more useful for code completion (or autocomplete feature?) to be case insensitive? I find myself almost all the time typing the first letter in lower, instead of 'A', I type 'a' most of the time expecting the code completion to appear

I am aware it could be something inside my indicator. But I'm at loss now. It doesn't work, it doesn't show anything in experts, but compiles ok.  Weird enough, I have an older mt5 from alpari installed, and there it works. Something ever
