Tables reference

Tables drawn in a corner of the chart. A table is made with table.new, and table.cell writes its cells.

Functions#

table.cell#

table.cell(table, column, row, [text], [width], [height], [text_color], [h_align], [v_align], [text_size], [background])

Writes a cell of a table: its text and look.

• Effects: draws on the chart or writes an output.
• Phase: every bar.
• Cost: counts against the limits on drawn objects and outputs.
• Examples: Status table, Trade tally, Bars in a day, A timeframe text the chart does not know.

table.clear#

table.clear([table], [from_column], [from_row], [to_column], [to_row])

Clears the cells of a block of the table.

• Effects: draws on the chart or writes an output.
• Phase: every bar.
• Cost: counts against the limits on drawn objects and outputs.

table.delete#

table.delete([table])

Removes the object from the chart.

• Effects: draws on the chart or writes an output.
• Phase: every bar.
• Cost: counts against the limits on drawn objects and outputs.

table.merge_cells#

table.merge_cells([table], [from_column], [from_row], [to_column], [to_row])

Merges a block of cells of the table into one.

• Effects: draws on the chart or writes an output.
• Phase: every bar.
• Cost: counts against the limits on drawn objects and outputs.

table.new#

table.new(position, columns, rows, [background], [frame_color], [frame_width], [border_color], [border_width])

Makes a table of columns by rows in a corner of the chart. Border width (border_width), like the other border and frame arguments (border_color, frame_color, frame_width), is accepted but has no visual effect in E1.

• Effects: draws on the chart or writes an output; builds a new value whose size follows its arguments (counted in the memory ledger).
• Phase: every bar.
• Cost: allocates: the memory ledger counts what it builds; counts against the limits on drawn objects and outputs.
• Returns: a table.
• Examples: Status table, Trade tally, Bars in a day, A timeframe text the chart does not know.

table.set_background#

table.set_background([table], [background])

Changes the background of the table.

• Effects: draws on the chart or writes an output.
• Phase: every bar.
• Cost: counts against the limits on drawn objects and outputs.

table.set_border_color#

table.set_border_color([table], [border_color])

Changes the border color of the table.

• Effects: draws on the chart or writes an output.
• Phase: every bar.
• Cost: counts against the limits on drawn objects and outputs.

table.set_border_width#

table.set_border_width([table], [border_width])

Changes the border width of the table.

• Effects: draws on the chart or writes an output.
• Phase: every bar.
• Cost: counts against the limits on drawn objects and outputs.

table.set_cell_background#

table.set_cell_background([table], [column], [row], [background])

Changes the background of one cell.

• Effects: draws on the chart or writes an output.
• Phase: every bar.
• Cost: counts against the limits on drawn objects and outputs.

table.set_cell_h_align#

table.set_cell_h_align([table], [column], [row], [h_align])

• Cost: counts against the limits on drawn objects and outputs.

table.set_cell_height#

table.set_cell_height([table], [column], [row], [height])

Changes the v align of one cell.

• Effects: draws on the chart or writes an output.
• Phase: every bar.
• Cost: counts against the limits on drawn objects and outputs.

table.set_cell_width#

table.set_cell_width([table], [column], [row], [width])
