Link style

[PopovMP]

Hello,

I need a link like that one:



Please post a code that will make a control like that. I assume that I have to only bind one of the standard controls style to a predefined one in NT.

Hello PopovMP,

Thanks for opening the thread.

That control is a button that has a transparent background and a transparent border brush.

You can use Inspect tool from Microsoft to identify controls used in NinjaTrader to get an idea on how you can create a similar control, or to obtain an automation ID if you wish to override some control. This tool is a general use tool for Windows and comes with Windows Software Development Kit (SDK) for Windows 8 which can be installed with Visual Studio.

You can get the Windows SDK here: https://developer.microsoft.com/en-u...indows-8-1-sdk

Further information on Inspect can be found here: https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/lib...(v=vs.85).aspx

I have created a video demonstrating how you can find the template button control type using Inspect: https://www.screencast.com/t/AyyNpE2NyE

You can modify the AddOn Framework example to create a similar button as follows:

// Find OnNews button and attach event handler
onNewsButton = LogicalTreeHelper.FindLogicalNode(pageContent, "onNewsButton") as Button;
[B]onNewsButton.BorderBrush = Brushes.Transparent;
onNewsButton.Background = Brushes.Transparent;[/B]

The AddOn Framework sample can be found in our help documentation on AddOns here: https://ninjatrader.com/support/help...t_overview.htm

Keep in mind that modifying NinjaTrader controls and using C# code that is outside of what we have documented escapes what we can provide support for. There may be an internal change that breaks those types of modifications.

There is a sample written by our colleague Jessica that overrides some controls that can be referenced here: http://ninjatrader.com/support/forum...644#post490999 This is all the direction we can offer for these unsupported techniques.

Please let me know if I may be of further assistance.
