Gees, after the last time you chewed me out about NOT reading the Read Me, I
start reading it.
Theirs just one little problem what does this mean?
Begin Read Me:
AFL: Status() function: 2 new fields added
" axisminy" - retrieves the minimum (bottom) value of Y axis (indicators
only)
" axismaxy" - retrieves the maximum (top) value of Y axis (indicators only)
Example 1:
Title = "Axis Min Y = " + Status("axisminy") + "Axis Max Y = " +
Status("axismaxy");
End Read Me:
So for a non programmer how to you use Status("axizminy" and "axizmaxy") to
get a price at a pixel. Or is it a pixel at a price??? Better yet, why can't
you use PlotText() and get "Times New Roman" and bigger text?

WHAT?????????????????????????
I did NOT say that !!!
What I did say was that PlotText is SIMPLER.
It does not mean that you can use Gfx functions. And I actually described
what you should do !
=== COPY OF MY SUPPORT RESPONSE BELOW ===
Using low-level graphics you need to:
1. get the "height" of the pane - Status("pxheight")
2. get the "miny" and "maxy" Status("axisminy"), Status("axismaxy")
3. calculate value->pixel position and then plot at specified X/Y
BUT..... to plot text on CHART at specified PRICE point, you should
really use much simpler PlotText() function that uses PRICE and DATE
as coordintes so you don't need to calculate yourself:
