Save Image API

Is there an API to save the chart image from inside an indicator code?

Hello afshinmoshrefi,

An API is an Application Programming Interface that allows external programs to interface with our program NinjaTrader.

Below is a link to a forum post about the API.

NinjaScript is internal in NinjaTrader and does not require interfacing with the API.

Below is a link to a forum post about getting started with NinjaScript.

As far as a taking a screenshot, this is possible with undocumented code.

I tried your suggestion with MyScreenTaker.cs.
MyScreenshot.png was created however, it was a plain chart.
All indicator plots are missing. Is there a way to get a screen shot with the displayed indicator plots?

Hello afshinmoshrefi,

I dug around and found an older version that still appears to work and the screenshot includes indicator plots.

Thanks, this is just what I was looking for.
