Here is a function to create a button. void CreateLabel(string labelname,string label,int xsize,int ysize,int xdist,int ydist,int bcolor,int fcolor) { if(ObjectFind(0,labelname)<0) { if(!ObjectCreate(0,labelname,OBJ_BUTTON,0,0,0)) { Print(__FUNCTION__, ": failed to create the button!

Change your function to: void CreateLabel(string labelname,string label,int xsize,int ysize,int xdist,int ydist,int bcolor,int fcolor) { if(ObjectFind(0,labelname)<0) { if(!ObjectCreate(0,labelname,OBJ_BUTTON,0,0,0)) { Print(__FUNCTION__,": failed to create the button! Error code = ",GetLastError()); return; } ObjectSetString(0,labelname,OBJPROP_TEXT,label); ObjectSetInteger(0,labelname,OBJPROP_XSIZE,xsize); ObjectSetInteger(0,labelname,OBJPROP_YSIZE,ysize); ObjectSetInteger(0,labelname,OBJPROP_CORNER,CORNER_LEFT_UPPER); ObjectSetInteger(0,labelname,OBJPROP_XDISTANCE,xdist); ObjectSetInteger(0,labelname,OBJPROP_YDISTANCE,ydist); ObjectSetInteger(0,labelname,OBJPROP_BGCOLOR,bcolor); ObjectSetInteger(0,labelname,OBJPROP_COLOR,fcolor); ObjectSetInteger(0,labelname,OBJPROP_FONTSIZE,8); ObjectSetInteger(0,labelname,OBJPROP_HIDDEN,true); ObjectSetInteger(0,labelname,OBJPROP_BORDER_TYPE,BORDER_FLAT); ChartRedraw(); } else { ObjectSetString(0,labelname,OBJPROP_TEXT,label); } }
