Getting an Icon for Reference

[Unsuitable]

Hello,

Would it be possible for someone to send over an icon from the main menu? Either the geometry or picture itself, I don't know how NT sets their icons but wither way works.

My custom icons are a little thick: https://i.imgur.com/fQwkluy.png

Hello Unsuitable,

I am not aware of a way to get icons from existing menus.

My example creates a custom icon from path geometry.

Hello ChelseaB,

That's how I created my icon. I want to match the thickness of the NT Icons. Assuming that the icons are made from path geometry, I could get the path data from one of the icons. It retrieves the bar-style icon. https://i.imgur.com/GSKASCB.png

object[] objs = chartWindow.MainMenu.ToArray();
System.Windows.Controls.Menu nt = objs[2] as System.Windows.Controls.Menu;
System.Windows.Controls.ItemCollection itemC = nt.Items;
NinjaTrader.Gui.Tools.NTMenuItem ntmenuitem = itemC.GetItemAt(0) as NinjaTrader.Gui.Tools.NTMenuItem;
System.Windows.Media.Geometry geo = ntmenuitem.Icon as System.Windows.Media.Geometry;

The problem is that I can't find a method to extract the path data from the geometry object (geo). This is a c# related question. The reason for this request is that I require the thickness of the path that scales to one pixel. SVGs don't have pixles so I can't just create a path that is one pixel wide. If I had the path data, I could make an SVG file with that path.

Hello Unsuitable,

I'm not aware of a way to extract path geometry from an object, but this thread will remain open for any community members that may know of a way.

You may consider asking on a forum dedicated to C# and WPF such as StackOverflow.

NinjaTrader does not make these paths available publicly, however I am happy to submit a feature request for the developers to consider it if you would like.
