How to remove all drawing objects from a chart from code ?

[EB Worx]

How can i remove all drawing objects on the chart from code ?
Basicly i would like to do drawing tool-> remove all drawing objects to remove all objects, but without the confirmation question popping up whether i really want this or not.

Hello Erwin BEckers,
Thanks for your post.

You can remove all drawing objects from your chart programmatically by using RemoveDrawObjects()
Please see the following link for more information: https://ninjatrader.com/support/help...rawobjects.htm

Additionally, we have a reference sample in the help guide that demonstrates how to remove a drawing object. Please see the following link for that: https://ninjatrader.com/support/help...s_from_the.htm

Erwin,

You can download and Install my A MahToolBar indicator and use any drawing tool or remove all drawing objects with only one click. The ToolBar will install in the main chart toolbar to save chart space and you can select all or as many buttons for your favorite drawing tools as you wish. The indicator is located in User Apps section, Here:

Thx Josh..
but that will only remove the draw objects from that specific indicator or drawing tool.. I would like to remove ALL draw objects.. without popups asking for confirmation.

Thx Aligator,
yeah i saw your toolbar.. I'm actually building my own (floating) toolbar (see below) which has lots of extra tools llike Elliott wave, gann square, wolf range, auto range, custom risk/reward tools etc etc.
using SendKeys kind of works.. But you get a popup asking are you sure you want to delete... all the time which i don't like.. and it requires users to setup a hotkey mapping..
imo there should just be some simple api call available allowing us to clear the chart of any drawing objects..

Erwin Beckers,

It is not currently possible to do this.


I am seeing two separate feature requests that I will add a vote to on your behalf .

The first, SFT-2062, is to remove the confirmation window when removing drawing objects.

The second, SFT-356, is to add NinjaScript functionality to remove manually drawn objects.


When a feature request is implemented, you'll find it in the release notes:

Please let me know if you have any further questions.

Erwin, I expect you will find it useful to examine how this toggle indicator works: https://ninjatraderecosystem.com/use...ers-and-wicks/

BTW, thank you for creating and posting the Measured Move tool. I use it every day.

Can you add a vote for both SFT-2062 and SFT-356 for me as well. Thanks.
