Add image background for Modal and Non-Modal windows

[txchristhomas]

I'm a trader and not a programmer, which means I'm probably way out of my league on this. I've learned how to create my own custom skins to make NT8 a little more appealing to look at. To keep things short, I'm trying to learn how to add images as backgrounds for modal and non-modal windows. I understand I'll need to use an image brush and source and tell everything where to go but something isn't clicking and I'm not getting it. If anyone can offer any help I'd greatly appreciate it. I have tried several resources online, but as I said, it's not clicking. The skins I'm creating will be available as free resources should anyone be interested. I've included a couple examples as attachments. Thanks in advance.

Hello txchristhomas,

Thanks for your post.

This would go beyond the scope of support we would be able to provide you with in the Support Department at NinjaTrader.

NinjaTrader Skin files are XML files so you could consider doing research on this topic to find information about how to accomplish this. For example, you could try to do a quick Google search for something like 'Adding images in XML file' to find more information on the topic.

This forum thread will also be open for other community members to share their insights on the topic.

Thank you for the thought. I hadn't considered researching XML files in that way, I was only looking at C# adding images.
