crosshair configuration

[raycam]

Is there a way of changing the colour of the crosshair?
I know I can change the crosshair label but with black backgrounds the light crosshairs are very stark.

raycam,

Unfortunately not.

Perhaps the crosshair color could be the same as the axis color instead of just locked to black/white?

Thanks for the suggestion.

This is definitely needed. An option to change the crosshair color is needed. It is very hard to look at a black chart with a white crosshair.

I second that!
using Black background Charts (as most Traders do), the Crosshair Cursor most definetly needs color selectable option.

ChartControl.CrossHairBuyColor only seems to change the labels as well?

[Rainer]

Mindset, can you pls elaborate. Your reply-answer has ends with a ?, what do you mean? And are you suggesting that "ChartControl.CrossHairBuyColor" is part of someSortOfScripting (if so, where does it need to go) else, pls explain.

[Mindset]

There is a ChartControl property called CrosshairBuyColor,CrossHairSellColor and CrossHairLabelColor.

So if you want you can change the CrossHairlabels in your code by eg

ChartControl.CrossHairLabelColor = Color.Red;

I was asking what are the other two properties?

And I agree with the thread - why not make the actual crosshairs themselves adaptable?

Hope that helps.

Mindset,

Unfortunately using of ChartControl is outside the scope of what we can offer support for. This thread is on our feedback list, but currently our priorities are to stabilize and fix bugs of NT7. When we are done with that then we will be able to reevaluate this request and see what can/cannot be done then. Thank you for your patience.
