Transparent Plot in Data Box
I know one of the new features advertised for NT8 is to allow plots to be invisible/transparent on the chart but still show in the mini data box. What settings will allow this? If I set a plot to the transparent brush then it doesn't show up in the data box. Thank you.Tags: None

The indicator I am working with is attached. My only goal is to have the plots (bar number and range) in the data box for reference. It works fine by listing the range and bar number but I want the plots to be invisible on the chart.
One additional question. How can I get the bar number on the ES to not have 2 decimal places behind it? Thanks.Attached Files

Hello,
Thank you for reporting this. We are currently looking into this issue, under Tracking ID # NTEIGHT-8916.
For your question about the bar numbers, are you referring to the Bar Indexes in the Data Box? I'm not seeing any decimal places on my end, so I may be misunderstanding you.Dave I.NinjaTrader Product Management

Code:{ double value8 = Bars.BarsSinceNewTradingDay + 1;//plus 1 required because count start at zero double value9 = Math.Round(value8, 0); BarNumber[0]= value9; }
Am I using it incorrectly? Thanks again for your help.

You are correct, but after testing further, I've discovered that the rounding in the display of the Data Box itself is hard coded, so rounding the plot value in code will not have an effect on the format in the Data Box. If you would like, I'll be happy to log a suggestion to transfer any rounding done on plot values into the Data Box, so we can begin to track demand for making the change.Dave I.NinjaTrader Product Management

Yes, please put in a request. I was able to do this in NT7 so if it can be the same in NT8 that would be great. Thank you again for your help.
