AIMS Box objects

[Herbert]

Hi Steve.
Is it at all possible in mt4 coding to render the AIMS box objects not selectable by mouse? Below is a possible suggestion for it. :-B

A: if its a custom indicator and you have access to the code, I believ the answer is to name the indicator label as no name:
SetIndexLabel(1,NULL);

Hi Herbert

I know exactly what you mean (it gets me too, from time to time) but I am not aware of any way this can be done. The AIMS boxes are formed from rectangle objects, as opposed to index lines such as you would use for MACD or AO. SetIndexLabel won't work for this.

Sorry

cheers

Hey Steve. Thanks for the reply. I was just being hopefull that you may pull a trick nobody else could... =p~
Yeah, somebody should go over to the MT4 people and slap some sense into them...

I know MT5 will give guys like you a lot more freedom. If only i can convince my broker to provide a feed for MT5 just for analysis..... :ympray:
I know some do...

Hey Herbert - I will get around to doing MT5 conversions one of these days, perhaps that will solve all our problems ...
