Add (Plot) parameters

[gdstuart]

How do I find the syntax for all the possible parameters for Add (Plot)? I want to control the dash style, color, plot style, width, etc. in the NinjaScript code.

The Help guide says: "There are many variations of defined plot and line objects that are not documented. We suggest using the NinjaScript indicator wizard to generate your indicator plot and oscillator lines."

I used the Wizard but did not see these parameters anywhere. They must be documented somewhere, right?

Thanks,

Add (Plot) parameters

Hello gdstuart,

Thanks for writing in to our Support team.

To view these parameters after creating your plots or lines in the wizard, you will need to unlock your code by selecting the Unlock Code button in the Indicator Wizard window.

In order to do this, you will want to use the NinjaScript Plot class combined with the C# Pen class to get your desired effect. To view all of the different constructors for the Plot class in you can visit our help guide here:
http://ninjatrader.com/support/helpG...plot_class.htm

You can view the constructors for the Pen class here:

You can view the constructors for the Line class here:
http://ninjatrader.com/support/helpG...line_class.htm

Using these constructors will allow you to control the color, plot style, and width of the plot:

// Adds a blue cross style plot with a thickness of 3
Add(new Plot(new Pen(Color.Blue, 3), PlotStyle.Cross, "myPlot"));

Please let me know if I may be of any further assistance.
