The Custom Drawing section of the Help Guide (under Shared Draw Methods and Properties) states the following:
There are virtually no limits for custom drawing on a chart panel. Since NinjaScript is based on Microsoft C#, the entire System.Drawing namespace is available for use. Custom drawing is an advanced programming topic and should only be considered by programmers familiar with Microsoft C# and the .NET Framework.
I would like to draw variable-width rectangles on my charts, but the drawing functions described in the help guide don't seem to have a property by which to scale the size of the object that is drawn.
Can you please point me in the right direction with C#/.NET for calling a drawing function that will basically operate the same as the DrawSquare function, but which will allow me to control the width by way of a variable reference? I looked through the System.Drawing documentation on the MSDN website, but I don't even know where to begin in terms of identifying a specific function to call.
Thank you.
