How to hide bars but make executions text and markers visible?

[fx.practic]

Hello.

I made indicator that plots custom candles over existing bars.
To make it independent of ChartStyles changes, in State.DataLoaded on each call of OnRender() I did this:

ChartBars.Properties.ChartStyle.IsVisible = false; 

but it hides executions text and markers, so I tried this:

Chart_Execution_Style = ChartBars.Properties.PlotExecutions;
ChartBars.Properties.ChartStyle.IsVisible = false;
ChartBars.Properties.PlotExecutions = Chart_Execution_Style; 

still no executions on chart.

So I tried this:

ChartBars.Properties.ChartStyle.DownBrush    = WmBrushes.Transparent;
ChartBars.Properties.ChartStyle.UpBrush        = WmBrushes.Transparent;
CandleOutlineBrushes[0] = WmBrushes.Transparent; 

This is less elegant, but it helps.

But, I still can see Kagi lines, and need to move chart to trigger OnRender() to make brushes transparent again after ChartStyle changed. This is the brief video: http://somup.com/cqieQmnWRX
And I am sure new surprises coming on this way.

So, what ways may You to advise?

UPD:
Does NT have something like ChartStyle.Changed event:?

Hello fx.practic,

What you provided would basically be the solution to hide the bars. Depending on which chart style is being used, it may use additional brushes for its custom view which you have accounted for with the Up and Down brush.

To cover the full range, you can additionally use:

BarBrush = Brushes.Transparent;
CandleOutlineBrush= Brushes.Transparent;

I see that with Kagi there is actually a reason the bar is shown there, the code is missing a condition.

We have:

RenderTarget.DrawLine(point0, point1, Stroke.BrushDX, Stroke.Width, Stroke.StrokeStyle);

Where this very likely should be like the other render points including the override brush:

RenderTarget.DrawLine(point0, point1, [B]overriddenBrush ?? (thickLine ? Stroke.BrushDX : Stroke2.BrushDX)[/B], thickLine ? Stroke.Width : Stroke2.Width, thickLine ? Stroke.StrokeStyle : Stroke2.StrokeStyle);

I will report this to development for review. It seems that not having the override brush used here allows the style to work normally except in this use case.

Had you noted any other chart styles which were still visible after using a transparent brush? If so, I can put requests in for those as well.

Does NT have something like ChartStyle.Changed event:?

There is not a specific NinjaScript ChartStyle.Changed event, the next best solution would be using OnRender as you had shown in the video. It will have a short delay due to waiting on a render pass.

I look forward to being of further assistance.

I test all bars I have and Kagi is one only BarStyle that don't want to disappear entirely on my orders.

Hello fx.practic,

Thank you for checking for other abnormalities, I will put this in to development as just the kagi style as that is all I see as well.

I look forward to being of further assistance.
