ChartCustomToolBarExample

[TAJTrades]

I used the example that Chelsea was kind enough to create for us as a guide for my tool bar. https://ninjatrader.com/support/foru...7&postcount=17

I have run into an issue trying to put a separator in the drop down menu. In case I do not know what I am talking about which could very well be the case, on NT8 Drawing Menu it is the horizontal line just below "Stay In Draw Mode". What is that called? Is it WPF or Forms? What terms do I need to google? Or maybe you could toss me a bone with a code sample?

topMenuItem1.Items.Add(new Separator());

is throwing error "The type or Namespace name "Separator" could not be found (are you missing a using directive or an assembly reference"

Thanks.

Hello TAJTrades,

Use these examples instead.

I would recommend googling: wpf separator.

Below is a publicly available link to the microsoft documentation.

You either need to use the fully qualified namespace or add a using statement for System.Windows.Controls.

As an example, take a look at how the variable theMenu is declared in the example script.
private System.Windows.Controls.Menu theMenu;

Below is a publicly available link to a 3rd party education site on using statements.
