Redrawing custom inidicator
OnTimer doesn't depend on a tick or anything else
show the relevant code in case you need help
Obviously, I have no idea what your indicator does or what it draws.
Have you tried using ChartRedraw() ?
Hey guys,
gjol: Yea I know - my indicator runs in it's own thread, and takes too long to generate data, so I poll it with OnTimer.
GumRai: That did the job perfectly - thanks so much!

Your welcome :)
I just hope that you didn't waste hours searching through the code, like I did, before learning this

Hi Guys,
I am working on an indicator which performs most of it's work in a background thread, using OnTimer to fetch and update the indicator..
The trouble I'm having, is that the indicator does not update until the chart is moved (eg. scroll left/right, tick, zoom etc..). I have tried sending WM_PAINT to the HWND of the chart, but it doesn't seem to have any effect...
Any ideas?
Michael
