Apply a script to all open charts

New comment
 

Hi guys,


I have this script that clears the chart from objects, trend-lines, Fibonacci, bla bla bla,,,,


I would like to know if its possible to apply the script once to all open charts in a profile ..


The script is: 


//+------------------------------------------------------------------+
//|                                                  CLEAR_CHART.mq4 |
//|                                            Aleksandr Pak, Almaty |
//|                                                   ekr-ap@mail.ru |
//+------------------------------------------------------------------+
#property copyright "AP"
#property link      "ekr-ap@mail.ru"
#property show_inputs
/*
If all fields inactive - are deleted by all
If one field = is set even deletes only this type
For example:
If the field delete_Partial_name =  all having it as a part of a name is s
If field Trend_line=true is set; // deletes all inclined lines
........................
*/
extern string delete_on_Partial_name="";

extern bool Vertical_line=true;
extern bool Horisontal_line=true;
extern bool Trend_line=true;

}

int start()
  {

      if(!w1&&StringLen(delete_on_Partial_name)==0)
         for (int i=k-1;i>=0; i--) //delte ALL
         {
         s=ObjectName(i);
         ObjectDelete(s);
         }else
    {
         if(StringLen(delete_on_Partial_name)!=0) 
            for (i=k-1;i>=0; i--)//delete partial 
            {
            s=ObjectName(i);
            if(StringFind(s,delete_on_Partial_name,0)>=0)ObjectDelete(s);
            }
   
      if(w1)
         for (i=k-1;i>=0; i--)//delete by type
         {
         s=ObjectName(i);

      }//else

  }
 
is it just not possible ?!

Hi, did you ever figure this out? Seems a nobrainer, but can't find it either.

Thanks!

Objects are per chart

https://docs.mql4.com/objects/ObjectsTotal says "Returns total amount of objects of the specified type in the chart."

 

only by using WINAPI

BTW i didn't read your code but doesn't ObjectsDeleteAll()

supposed to get the job done

instead of so many lines of code

 
Its possible. Create a script repeater ea and attach it to all open charts then in the script add code that sets a global variable to command all the eas to clear their chart.
