I am trying to learn BullScript and have come accross the attribute [Marker=Type2]. I have been trying to find the different marker types in the BullCharts help files and manual but can not find reference to various marker types. Can anyone supply a list or tell me where to find the marker types and what they do.

Thanks

Barry

Barry I had problems here to. Some are called points( dots as in parabolic sars) and another is called type 1, this is a circle that is filled in.
Try loooking at the builder area of a indicator that has markers you want, go edit and then you should see how it has been written. Otherwise ring BC I always do. They are very helpful

Hello Jalna, Thanks for the reply I did call WebLink as you suggested and got a good response. They Emailed me with 5 marker types and the graphic displayed when the various marker=types were used. I tried to copy and paste these graphics here but they would not apperar. So I will try to describe them

Marker=Type1 Displays a small curcle purple with a 1 inside it.

Marker=Type2 Displays a small curcle orange with a 2 inside it.

Marker=Type6 Displays a small up blue arrow

Marker=Long Displays small up green arrow

Marker=Short Displays small down red arrow

Hi Barry, I'm not the one to be asking. I can't write code unfortunately
If you look under the Better Volume thread , you will see a really complicated code that I wanted . Eventuallly BC helped out and it is in there. I copied a bit form it for you.
Try linestyle=points

[name="testBar";linestyle=points;tooltip="testBar";color="Blue"]
tb:= If(testBar,L,undefined);
tb-(L*0.015);

It is on page 2 or is it 3 of that thread. Hope that is of some help.
Its not the better volume code but the VSA code
