Where are my screenshots?

[isp00rt]

Itested the 'Chart sceen shot' block for the first time and I can't simply find where they are stored. Block itseld says you can name the folder and the prefix of every image. To no avail, apparently. Has someone else used them? Any help will be appreciated.

[isp00rt]

Any hint?

Anyone helping?

No clue?

They are on different places if you are testing or running live. Search for them in Windows Explorer and you will find them. I think they are either in MQL4/Files or in tester/files, but I might be wrong.

[isp00rt]

Ok. I'll take a look there. Thank you.

[isp00rt]

OK. I found them, but quality is very variable. Some images are good screenshots, but more than half are like this big mess:

Any idea why it happens?

I was not able to replicate your issue with these settings:

Standard function of the metatrader is used in the block:
https://docs.mql4.com/chart_operations/chartscreenshot

[fxDreema]

Yes, the ChartScreenShot() function is used for that. And that function has 2 arguments for width and height. In the block I see that the default values are empty values (which means 0), but in this case in the code I see that the current chart size is used instead of 0 I tested it and it seems to work properly for me as well. If you want, share the settings that you have in this block

[isp00rt]

I used the same setting as per miro except that I didn't specify any Width and Height. They were both blank. I will try as per miro suggests.

[isp00rt]

I used the exact same miro settings and this is what I got:

BTW, I forgot to tell that I'm trying this on MQL5. Am I missing something?

[miro1360]

try it with a custom function, if your problem about resizing persist, it is MT5 bug and only who can solve it is the metatrader company

[isp00rt]

Question 1. Considering that I want to take an image of every buy/sell trade I will have to connect it immediately after the buy/Sell block. Correct?

Question 2. I'm not a programmer. I'm not sure if any of the words included in your example are variables. Is there any? If so, which ones?

[miro1360]

1. yes
2. no

testing is learning

One more question, please. Where are the pics supposed to be found?
