SimpleFont Class

[wuileng]

Can't seem to get this to work. Is there an additional using declaration required for this, as I don't see anything in the documentation?

Hello wuileng,

Thank you for your post.

I am not sure I follow what you are looking for. Can you provide a link or additional context to the SimpleFont your are trying to access?

I'm trying to initialize a SimpleFont using the example code in the NT8 documentation.

SimpleFont myFont = new SimpleFont("Courier New", 12) { Size = 50, Bold = true };

However, when compiling I'm getting CS0246 errors.

It's in Gui.Tools

NinjaTrader.Gui.Tools.SimpleFont myFont = new NinjaTrader.Gui.Tools.SimpleFont("Courier New", 12) { Size = 50, Bold = true };

I see a whole bunch of useful stuff in that namespace. Should we not have it as one of the standard using statements that the Wizard generates?

We discussed that, but SimpleFont in our opinion was the only object in that namespace we could see users using at any frequency. We intended to have the SimpleFont class reference that namespace explicitly and I've updated the help guide to reflect that.
