Create a Chart Tab from an AddOn

Hi jeronymite, thanks for your question.
The chart tab written by NinjaTrader is not publicly available, so it would need to be done "from scratch". All of the WPF controls and some kind of render area need to be added to the addon tab. I'll submit a feature request to our product managers so we can easily add a chart into an addon tab.
Kind regards.Chris L.NinjaTrader Customer Service

Thanks, Chris. A supported feature would be excellent.
In the meantime, I know that many capabilities are not "supported" or documented for use, but can be done in an unsupported manner if one is aware of the way. Is this possible with creating a chart tab via an AddOn?
I am aware of the Chart and ChartTab classes, for example. The AddOn documentation even speaks of the Chart class in particular and how it can be accessed in an AddOn for various reasons. Can they (or some other, unsupported means) be used to either create the chart tab or make it relatively straightforward to do so?
Thanks.

Hello jeronymite,
This is Jim responsing on behalf of Chris who is out of the office at this time.
Interest in the ability to create a chart tab in an AddOn window is being tracked with the internal ticket ID SFT-4897.
There is not any documentation or insight we could provide for programmatically creating/adding a chart tab. If other community members of have accomplished this, we will leave the thread open so they can share their experience.
We look forward to assisting.JimNinjaTrader Customer Service

Hello jeronymite,
We do not offer a supported way to programmatically change the Data Series on a chart and do not have a supported way to switch the tab and then programmatically change the data series. My colleague Chelsea has some code that can programmatically change the Data Series by sending key presses to change the instrument through an overlay instrument selector in the Rollover Indications indicator.
You could consider triggering the hot key to switch tabs programmatically, but this would also be considered an unsupported approach.
