Select Object by Name & Modify Properties
-
Don't know if this has been reported yet, but there is no way to make these two blocks work together from init. This happens in mq5.
The "Select Object by Name" block can pass, but it doesn't select anything. Modify Properties works well with the "For Each Object" block, the problem being it cannot select specified names, so modifications get all messed up if labels start with the same partial names (trying to customize the built-in spread labels).

Its the same in mq4 , hope its resolved soon

-
There, isn't it beautiful? Had to replace the labels with similar names


-
Hahaha , think of me that have a total strategy based on horizontal lines movements , im in a hold right now and can't improve anything at all until the problem is fixed

-
@timmyhanke Interesting, hope Mr. Fxdreema hears our prayers.
Would it be possible to take a little sneak peek on that project? (or at least the overall idea) just curious

-
I will check this block. I made some updates on many blocks lately, maybe I added some bug... or it was there for a long time

-
And to be curious is something great

Here is one on random , i use the market movement to change the places of horizontal lines that are placed x pips from closed price or the price i want to use , but i have thought about the pip part and work more with % instead , hopefully its better fitting to all charts but will test it further

@timmyhanke I see, perhaps i am a little lost, but there is way to make these work with the "for each object" block? Or just the "select object by name" can detect whether an object exists or not
(never looker at it myself). -
@fxdreema Hello! Another thing i noticed... I cannot create fibos that are not "ray" (they always extend to infinity from both sides). And a scary bug where ALL my blocks get erased (web mq5 version), the latest only happened once and luckly i had a backup source code. Tried to refresh and restart Fxdreema but they appeared to be erased for good (variables too!). Don't know what may have caused it, i only remember trying to erase a single corrupted block and being very hasty about it, then all of the blocks were gone.

(never looker at it myself).They are suppose to work with select object by name but still dosnt , found out that if you just place new draw blocks instead of using that block it should do the same

@timmyhanke Nice
i am glad you could make it work! Good luck with your project.
