How do we get a MessageBox that supports skins?

[codeowl]

Hi there,

Can you please give an example of how to get a MessageBox that supports skins like the one in the attached screen shot.

Thank you for your time,

Hello,

Thank you for the question.

This could be achieved using the NTMessageBoxSimple class, unfortunately this is not a documented item at this point in time.

Here is a simple example:

ChartControl.Dispatcher.InvokeAsync(new Action(() => {      
	NinjaTrader.Gui.Tools.NTMessageBoxSimple.Show(Window.GetWindow(ChartControl.OwnerChart as DependencyObject), "Hey there", "Guess What?", MessageBoxButton.OK, MessageBoxImage.Hand);
}));

I look forward to being of further assistance.

Jesse,

Thanks for the quick reply and great example mate. That looks like exactly what I am after!!

One problem, I can't find it in the NinjaTrader.Gui.Tools namespace.

See the attached image. I spent some time searching through here before posting this question as this is where I found the NTGrid. I searched for Prompt, Message, Dialogue etc... and when I found nothing that looked like it was a MessageBox, I posted the question.

It is great to know that there is a class for this provided though, I look forward to getting the location of it ;-)

It's prob worth adding I am running NT 8.0.0.9 64-bit (Multi-Broker) - BETA

Hello,

Thank you for the reply.

I am unsure based on the image regarding beta 9, unfortunately we are no longer on the prior beta to address where that may have been before. I do see that in b10 it is in the NinjaTrader.Gui.Tools namespace when using the object browser.

Please let me know if I may be of further assistance.

Jesse,

Perfect thanks mate. Funny NT had prompted me to update previously, but not this time. However after I installed Beta 10 the NTMessageBoxSimple is there.

Thanks again for your help ;-)
