The Color setting for Chart Trade Markers

[JerryWar]

Why is it when I place a manual chart Marker on the screen that is the same color
i.e. Magenta as the trade execution markers , The color is different and nowhere near as bright ?

I can see how visually they might look different, however, I've verified that these are both the exact same hex code color #FF04FF. I used this tool to compare the colors:

Removing the border color of the arrow, or making it the same color as the body, makes it seem more visually similar.

Interesting, You can't even see the border yet it alters the appearance of the object.
thanks

Patrick that is working well, However, In order to have different Outline colors you need to use templates. It would be nice if the Template files could be specified, i.e. Name, Color, Outline etc. from within the code.

Is there a way yet to create the template files from within the code other than copying in an XML file to correct folder.

Hello JerryWar,

Thank you for your response.

There would not be a means to do this in NinjaScript directly, although it may be possible with outside libraries.

Please let me know if you have any questions.
