Hi,

You can set the object IsInteractive flag to True:

using cAlgo.API;

namespace cAlgo.Robots
{
    [Robot(TimeZone = TimeZones.UTC, AccessRights = AccessRights.None)]
    public class DrawIcon : Robot
    {

        protected override void OnStart()
        {
            string sMessage = "Long " + Bars.LastBar.OpenTime;
            var icon = Chart.DrawIcon(sMessage, ChartIconType.UpArrow, Bars.LastBar.OpenTime, Bars.LastBar.Low * 0.999, Color.FromHex("#DDE7E7E7"));

            icon.IsInteractive = true;
            icon.IsLocked = true;
        }

        protected override void OnTick() {}

        protected override void OnStop() {}
    }
}

The IsLocked is an additional optional step which disables moving of object, but you can turn it on/off from object settings.

Hi,

There is no such issue on my posted code, most probably you made some changes on it, the error says that the variable "icon" does not exist.

RE: RE: RE:

Hi Musleh,

Thanks for the reply. I found the problem. 

            var icon = Chart.DrawIcon(sMessage, ChartIconType.UpArrow, Bars.LastBar.OpenTime, Bars.LastBar.Low * 0.999, Color.FromHex("#DDE7E7E7"));

I should define the icon first. So that we can set the properties for it.  

Much appreciated.
