screen capture indicator

Postby czimster » Fri Sep 09, 2016 4:49 pm

I need to make an indicator that:

"captures historic screen shots as well as future screenshots.
For example – on the hourly bar it would advance the chart every hour and capture the image for the historic bars as well as do the same thing for every upcoming bar."


The screen shots would be saved in files which includes a time stamp in the file name so there would be a save file for each hour.

I am not familiar with Lua. I've found that there is a display.Save and a screenCapture functions
Does anyone know of a way to programmatically scroll the screen back in time (to the left)?

Then at the beginning I could scroll the screen left and do my historical screen captures and come back to the current chart and do my current and furture screen captures moving forward.

Thanks
czimster

Unfortunately screen capture is not currently supported.
Have suggested this to the development team.
