cursor & labels.

[Mr_Wheeler]

I have an indicator that I would like to add what I feel to be "missing" labels. Currently it displays information based on the current bar.

How do you make a label read information off a bar that your mouse cursor is focused on?

Can you make a label disappear when the cursor is not on a chart, and then reappear when the cursor is back on a chart?

This is not possible. You could try something like plotting all of the variables, and then using the databox to see the values at each bar, but labels do not have his capability. There are no mouse related functions in think script.

Speaking of the Data box is there a reason why data such as the value of the arrow plot won't show up until I hover my mouse directly over the arrow symbol?

Is it possible to stick label data in the data box? A few weeks ago I wanted to create something like a video game HUD information display section, now that you've reminded me about the databox I may have an option.
