    Chart Screenshot using Ninjascript

    I'm trying to take a Screenshot, from an Indicator, of the chart and save it to disk, so I can share it to a Share Service.

    I figured the function "GetScreenshot(ShareScreenshotType screenshotType)", which is only available for objects of the type "NinjaTrader.Gui.Chart.Chart", was what I needed to take the screenshots. But how do I get the object of the Chart which my Indicator is being executed in? I tried to create a new chart object but I didn't get many results from that.

    Hello. Thank you for the post.

    Please see this sample which creates a chart object and captures a screenshot:


    You would then use the Share method and add the screenshot path to the parameters.



    Please let us know if you have any questions.

      Hello
      With that methods the chart is saved correctly but without indicators draws.
      Code:
      RenderTargetBitmap screenCapture = chart.GetScreenshot(ShareScreenshotType.Chart);
      How could I save the real chart view with all the indicators as native NT contextual menu function?

      Thank you.

        Ok, I get it !

        RenderTargetBitmap screenCapture = chart.GetScreenshot(ShareScreenshotType.Window);
