What is and how do I find this "directory"

[trdninstyle]

Would this directory be from my charts?

1. Locate your base .zip distribution package

2. Open the .zip

3. Create a new directory called "templates" without the quotes

4. Navigate into the "templates" directory and create another new directory called "Chart"

5. Navigate into the "Chart" directory. Copy the .xml chart templates you wish to distribute from My Documents\NinjaTrader 8\templates\Chart to this directory in the .zip

Are there pics explaining this process like this for NT7 ?

Where did you get the list of instructions in the body of your message?
What exactly are you trying to accomplish?

I'm not sure what you are trying to achieve but NT8 chart templates are located here: c:\Users\YourAccountName\Documents\NinjaTrader 8\templates\Chart\
Your pic isn't correct, it's export indicators in NT7.

Thanks guys, tradgrad and Leeroy_Jenkins,

"Your pic isn't correct, it's export indicators in NT7."
I couldn't find it in NT8, I was showing an example,


"Where did you get the list of instructions in the body of your message?"
It was provided to me by support in email, but a long time went by, so I kept looking, thats why I came here.

"What exactly are you trying to accomplish?"
This is good timing because as it turns out, it didn't work.

Trying to accomplish is: When someone imports my indicator to have the, in this case, the fib templates to be loaded.
My understanding is broader now on this subject, she told me it looked correct, but it still didn't work, templates did not load, so default fibs showed up instead, for 10 ppl.

-I exported 5 indicators: Tools > Export > NinjaScript Add-On
-I opened the exported folder
-I made another folder on my desktop. templates > opened it, added another folder 'DrawingTools' > pasted my fib templates into it.
-Dragged the DrawingTool folder into the exported zipped folder that I got from Tools>NinjaScript>Add-On

(4. Navigate into the "templates" directory and create another new directory called "Chart") It was "DrawingTools" not "Chart"
also, I was confused about, what was meant by "directory". I get it now.

-it would be like someone born blind, gets his sight, then tell him to pick out the blue one lol. What is blue? What the ... is the directory?
I know now I received my sight.

Opened:



Opened it, to verify that templates were there.

So, this is what I'm trying to do.
