Is it possible to create UserDrawn Ray from Indicator?

[dewsamurai]

I have an indicator to convert a UserDrawn Line to a Ray (works as I want).

However, when I attempt to later delete the ray, I'm prompted indicating that the ray was drawn by my indicator, continuing to delete the ray will also remove the indicator from my chart.

I'd like to be able to remove such converted objects without removing my indicator. I believe I have to create a UserDrawn object, but, I don't know how to do this in an indicator.

Is it possible?

Many Thanks

Hello DewSamurai,

Thank you for your post.

You will need to use AllowRemovalOfDrawObjects: http://www.ninjatrader.com/support/h...rawobjects.htm

Thank you Patrick. That did the trick.

Now, I can't delete the UserDrawn Line object.

I'm calling RemoveDrawObject(line.Tag), but, the line still exists after the ray is created.


Can an Indicator delete a UserDrawn object?

RemoveDrawObjecct does not work on manual (user) drawn lines and this is by design. You can only remove script generated objects.

Bummer.

Thanks for the reply.
