Dear Jerry,
Please read the low level graphics page with 4.94 beta release in case
you havent done so. TJ has given an example to show plots of prices as
a table. It has opened a world of opportunities a la Neoticker (some
other TA software costing a bomb).
As per the bar-pixel coordination, it still is unsolved for me, unless
I build the bar from scratch (low level) as Jim's code.
Thanks
