DYO: Font Size for Labels, Section

This chart example shows the chart scale and time stamps hidden.  Use hot keys  CTRL+ALT+T  or uncheck the chart pop-up menu Show | Scale & Time.  Chart shows the clock toolbar.  Increase the Right Margin property to maintain space for the labels to be shown.

The following DYO was added to the chart to show a label in a size 16 font.  The label has 3 lines showing the Ask Volume, current price, and Bid Volume.   The volume of trading at the Bid is 902, and the volume of trading at the Ask is 38 so far in this bar under construction.  The current price is 1324.75.

The label font size can be changed using the Global Action | Label Font Size = # selection.  The Number field sets the size of the font.   The label had 3 look-up tags separated by commas.  The commas split the label into separate lines.

• [$A]  references the Ask Volume.  The ` character in the [$A`] notation formats the value to an integer.
• [$C]  references the current price.
• [$B]  references the Bid Volume.   Again, the ` character is used to format the value to an integer.
• [$E]  references the Ask Ratio.
• [$F]  references the Bid Ratio.

See the Property Form documentation for a complete list of the look-up tags that are available to show other bar and quote page values.

There is also a Global Action | Section Font Size = # selection to control the font size of the Message Text shown in the Sections.

The Font Style can be set to Bold by using a negative number with either of these Font Size selections.   Example:  Number = -16.  The WoodieCCI template which can be downloaded from the Ensign web site using the Internet Services form has been updated to utilize a larger font size and a bold font style in the places marked by the 3 red arrows.
