Great, thank you Chelsea

I'm glad you are still interested in this thread.

Thanks for the heads up.

Hello,

I've had to update these scripts once more to use .InvokeAsync instead of BeginInvoke (which has been deprecated by microsoft).

(edit)
Use these updated examples instead.

Thank you Chelsea, I appreciate you updating this thread.

Thanks Chelsea,

This example is a big help.

A follow on. How would we put ToolBars on just one tab of a Chart window? Just like the Chart Trader only shows up on the tabs where it has been activated.

Hello daqu40,

Are you finding the CustomChartToolBarExample is showing on different tabs than the tab that has added the indicator?

If so, I am not able to reproduce this behavior on my end. May I confirm you are using the latest version of the Beta (8.0.0.13)?

If not, there is an example of showing items for specific tabs in this example.

Hello Chelsea,

yes this has been a problem for people using tabbed charts. I have tested your toolbar and 'mine' and found them to have the same behaviour that @daqu40 is reporting. Although I don't use tabbed charts it is something I too would like to see addressed..... if of course you have the time and inclination

I had a try a few months back where I was able to make the wrap panel etc invisible and disabled but it still left the toolbar panel visible. This panel would still be visible on any tabbed chart behind, so when I add another toolbar on a tabbed chart the indentation would be doubled in width.

Thank you again,

Simon.

Hello,

My mistake everyone. I've gotten my scripts confused.

I'm testing the ChartToolBarCustomMenuExample on my chart, and then referring to CustomChartToolBarExample in this thread.

Below is a link to the script that is tab specific.

MySelectionChangedHandler is where I am setting the visibility on the menu to Collapsed.
For the toolbar, the row height could set to 0.

Awesome Chelsea,

Can't wait to check it out. Thanks for sticking with us on this.
