Drawing ToolBar Indicator stoped working after NT8 Update

[woodyfox]

Hi, I was hoping someone could tell me why this attached drawing indicator stopped working. It was written by sim22. It worked fine till NT8 had an update . Any help would be much appreciated.
Thanks Woody.

Hi Woody,

There have been many code breaking changes since NinjaTrader 8 was in Beta 11.

Have you contacted Sim22 to ask if there is an updated version for the official release of NinjaTrader 8?

The actual script include a dll so this is something you would want to contact the original author for assistance with.

Thanks Chelsea.
I found another drawing indicator that I could use to replace the last one.

Question, would it be possible to use the icons that are stored in my Ninjatrader 8 bin directory. I have attached a screenshot of the code.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks Woody.

Hello woodyfox,

Just to confirm, you are trying to use an .ico file as the image for the button?

From my understanding yes this is possible with WPF buttons by adding an image to the button's content.

Below are links to 3rd party sites that have more information.

Hi Chelsea,
So, I would have to know how to program this with all new code. I was hoping the content line in the attached .png could simply be changed to were my icon is located. I'm not a programmer by any means LOL !
Wishful thinking on my part?

Hello woodyfox,

It would be different but not much different. The drawing object images in NinjaTrader are a custom font with special characters. But you can use an image instead.

Create an image object variable with the path of your image.

Set the Content property of the button to the variable.
