Attach Method of Annotation Arrow

[User (Legacy)]

Hi,

The following code works perfectly; however, If I uncomment the 2 lines and

attempt to bind the arrow to the chart, I get no line at all, no error, but

no line.

Any thoughts on this? I have tried to call attach at the beggining of the

procedure, at the end, and as illustrated below, in the middle. All the the

same result.

    If m_blnStartedHoriz Then

        '

        m_blnStartedHoriz = False

        InvertRgn m_lngChartHDC, m_lngRegion

        Set m_objHorizontalLine = AnoExt.Add(OBJECT_TYPE_ARROW)

        m_objHorizontalLine.Top = sngStartY / Screen.TwipsPerPixelY

        m_objHorizontalLine.Left = sngStartX / Screen.TwipsPerPixelX

        'strAttach = (sngStartX / Screen.TwipsPerPixelX) & "," & (sngStartY

/ Screen.TwipsPerPixelY) & "," & (m_objHorizontalLine.Left + (-1 *

((sngStartX / Screen.TwipsPerPixelX) - sngNewX))) & "," & (sngStartY /

Screen.TwipsPerPixelY)

        'm_objHorizontalLine.Attach 2, strAttach

        m_objHorizontalLine.Width = -1 * ((sngStartX /

Screen.TwipsPerPixelX) - sngNewX)

        m_objHorizontalLine.Height = 0

        m_objHorizontalLine.HeadStyle = ARROW_NONE

        m_objHorizontalLine.TailStyle = ARROW_NONE

        m_objHorizontalLine.Color = InverseColor(ChartFX.RGB2DBk)

        m_objHorizontalLine.Refresh False

        '

    End If

This is called within ChartFX_LButtonUp if that makes a difference.

Thanks in advance,

The attach method receives LOGICAL coordinate in X-Axis and Y-Axis units.

You are passing PIXEL values to it.

Would I pass the attach method the double values for my dates on the X-axis

(pixeltovalue returns these), or convert the double values returned to

dates?

Thanks,

Chase

Attach expects double values, the ones returned by PixelToValue or using the

XValue property should give you the desired results.
