I used the conversion tool found on the forum to convert all my indicators to NT8. Now that I go into the code I'm running into many small issues. I've been studying the code breaking page as well.
Here's a current issue: NT7 in DrawText I have 'ChartControl.Font'. In NT7 I did not pick a font or anything, it just works. In NT8 the error I'm getting is it does not contain a definition for 'Font'. I think it wants me to use 'SimpleFont' followed by a font and size? But I don't know what my font and size is. All I know is I like it as it is. How do I simply keep it as is? How do I determine chart font and size?
This is one of many issues I'll surely run into; I have quite a few custom indicators that, of course, I want to work in NT8. I also have some 3rd party indicators that are ready to work in NT8 but I can't import because of all my compiler errors.
Is there a simple way around these problems I don't know about? And incidentally, I am not interested in paying a consultant to convert indicators that already work in NinjaTrader; this is something one does when changing platforms.
Thank you.
