Clock for top Toolbar

[dmking]

Anyone know if it's possible to program or add a clock to the top NT toolbar?

Hello,

I am unaware of any item that does this currently but it is certainly possible to add a clock to a chart.
For creating a items specifically for the toolbar there is nothing supported as far as the toolbar goes, you could use a DrawTextFixed to place it in one of the corners of the chart area instead.

From an unsupported standpoint if you wanted to use the toolbar you could look at the Drawing Tools toolbar indicator. This can show you how toolbars work and you could create a bar if you wanted that contained items of your choice using windows forms controls. Here is a link to the drawing tool toolbar http://www.ninjatrader.com/support/f...d=6&linkid=530

I look forward to being of further assistance.

Maybe something like this?

Yes, as eDanny has shown examples.

There's some code floating around here or the sample area for adding buttons to the toolbar.

Wouldn't be much different to add a text item and update it.

I'll stick with my windows degraded sidebar clock.

I use a sidebar clock as well (love the sidebar) but the problem with any clock on the desktop is that it can be easily covered by a chart. My IT_ToolBarTime solves that problem.

Edit: Just to mention there are four user alarms in this toolbar clock.
