declare your font (make sure it's a valid font in your window font folder)

Code

      #region Variables
...
		private Font 		fp = new Font("Arial", 10, GraphicsUnit.Point);
		private Color		fColor			= Color.Navy;
		private TextPosition tPosition = TextPosition.BottomRight;
	

...
        #endregion

Code

				String text0 = String.Format(@"  first line goes here   ");
				String text1 = String.Format(@"  second line               ");
				String text2 = String.Format(@"  3rd line                    ");

DrawTextFixed("mytext", text0+"\n"+text1+"\n"+text2+"\n ", tPosition, fColor, fp, Color.Empty, Color.Empty, 100);

if you check d9C here

d9ParticleOscillator

Here is one for you 'elite' members. This is an advanced oscillator based on auxiliary particle filter, I think you will find that it is better than most commercial indicators. It can be very fast while still removing nearly all of the noise from …

you will see

DrawOnPricePanel = false;

this how you keep the text not draw on price panel

then you can issue

DrawOnPricePanel = true;

to draw on price panel again

to drawtext you always have to know the y axis value and the x (which bar from the most current bar)) value so that you can position your text,
for exmp:
DrawText("V1", true, "de ", 40, 0, 0, Color.White, textFont, StringAlignment.Center, Color.Empty, Color.Empty, 10) ;

x = 40 = 40 bar back, and y = 0;
