SharpDX question

[kenz987]

I have an indicator that draws rectangles on the chart using SharpDX, but these items do not show in the Object list. Why Not? Can they be shown? How? Thanks, Ken

Hello kenz987,

Thank you for your note.

Drawing objects drawn using SharpDX would not show in the objects list, this would be expected.

What you could do is create a list of a type for which you add these drawing objects to which would allow you to track and or remove them from being drawn, via code. You would use lists for this,

If you wanted the contents of the list show, for example on the chart, you could see the following sample which with the click of a button will show an option chain for a selected equity.
