CS0115 error code

[realrich]

I have "System.Windows.Input and System.Windows.Forms" in my Using Declaration. Every time I tried to compile the following codes, I get error code CS0115 (no suitable method to override).
Please help resolving this issue. Thanks.

public override void OnMouseDown(ChartControl chartControl, ChartPanel chartPanel, ChartScale chartScale, ChartAnchor dataPoint)
{

''''''''''' my code '''''''''''
}

Hello, thanks for writing in. We have an existing example of how to get a mouse down event through a chart here:

Kind regards,

switch (DrawingState)

case DrawingState.Building:
dataPoint.CopyDataValues(Anchor);
Anchor.IsEditing = false;
DrawingState = DrawingState.Normal;
IsSelected = false;
break;
case DrawingState.Normal:
// make sure they clicked near us. use GetCursor incase something has more than one point
Point point = dataPoint.GetPoint(chartControl, chartPanel, chartScale);
if (GetCursor(chartControl, chartPanel, chartScale, point) != null)
DrawingState = DrawingState.Moving;
else
IsSelected = false;
break;
}
}

Hi realrich, thanks for the follow up. If you are working on a drawing tool, make sure the class that derives from DrawingTools is within this code exactly:

#region Using declarations
using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.ComponentModel;
using System.ComponentModel.DataAnnotations;
using System.Linq;
using System.Windows;
using System.Windows.Media;
using System.Xml.Serialization;
using NinjaTrader.Gui;
using NinjaTrader.Gui.Chart;
#endregion
​

namespace NinjaTrader.NinjaScript.DrawingTools
{
[B]    public class MyCustomDrawingTool : DrawingTool
        {
            public override void OnMouseDown(ChartControl chartControl, ChartPanel chartPanel, ChartScale chartScale, ChartAnchor dataPoint){}
         }[/B]
}

System.Windows.Input and System.Windows.Forms are not required to override this method, so if you are not working on a drawing tool, this override can not be used, and one must use the override from the example I posted earlier.
