Plots- Setting plot bar width

[Brutus]

When I use the command
Plots[0].Pen = new Pen(Color.Red);
It sets the plot bar width to 1, why would it change this?


Also;
Is there a command to set plot bar width in real time.


Lastly;
Is there a command to make the plot appear on the top of the chart, instead of the bottom.

Thanks
Brutus

Brutus,

1) Since you are instantiating a new pen object. If you just want to change the color, just code: Plots[0].Pen.Color = Color.Red;

2) Plots[0].Pen.Width = yourValue;

3) There is no option to change the z-order of painting at this time.

Hi Ray
It seems these commands affect the whole plot and not an individual bar, is there any way to set the plot - individual bar color and individual bar width?

Is this possible with NinjaTrader 7.0? Perhaps there is something like PlotColors introduced in this new version, or is it still not possible? If so, is there a workaround for this?


Plots[0].Pen.Width=5;
for example changes the width of the whole plot when included in a 'if' statement in the OnBarUpdate method. Anyone got an suggestion for accomplishing this?

In NT7 you would have access to historical bar and plot colors through their series, unfortunately not the width - this could be accomplished by overriding the default plot method and custom drawing this with C#.
