How to access NT ColorPicker in AddOn

[aslane]

I would need to use a color picker in an AddOn, and would like use the NT color picker. I did not see any examples or doc on how that control can be accessed/used. Any pointers?

Thanks.

Hello aslane,

The brush picker is part of the overall property grid assembly, in order to use that in an addon you would need to also include the property grid assembly in your exports/references.

There is no documentation for this due to this being an external control, you can reference the assembly and use it but we would not have any type of direction for that use or know if it would work correctly in all situations.

If you were to use this it would require adding the program files reference to the C:\Program Files (x86)\NinjaTrader 8\bin64\System.Windows.Controls.WpfPropertyGrid.dl l

A namespace would need to be added:

xmlns:p="clr-namespace:System.Windows.Controls.WpfPropertyGrid.Controls;assembly=System.Windows.Controls.WpfPropertyGrid"

And then it could be referenced however I have no direction on how to access the selected value or other tasks with this control.
