You have to change it in the code of the MQ4 file.

Hi, yes am aware of that. Would like to change the color in the following line of code

Comm=Comm+" ("+DoubleToStr(High[H2]-kH*H2,j)+") broken at "+DoubleToStr(k,j)+", uptarget:\n";

Many thanks

you may have to experiment with objects to get some color

Code:

int init(){
return(0);}
int deinit()
{
ObjectDelete("com1");

return(0);}

int start()
  {
  
  string text="I like Monkeys";
 

        ObjectCreate("com1", OBJ_LABEL, 0, 0, 0);
        ObjectSetText("com1",text, 6, "Arial Bold", Lime);
        ObjectSet("com1", OBJPROP_CORNER,0);
        ObjectSet("com1", OBJPROP_XDISTANCE, 2);
        ObjectSet("com1", OBJPROP_YDISTANCE, 43);
