Indicator Plot Disappeared after adding buttons to toolbar

[BeachTrader11807]

Hello, I am including my .cs file on this one.

I have my indicator which adds buttons to the tool bar to toggle on/off plots for currentOHL and priorOHLC, along with other buttons to help with tedious tasks.

The problem I am having is when I add the buttons to the indicator, the current and prior plots disappear. The price tags are still there, and there is data in the data box however invisible plots.

Now this is supposed to be my next step (To toggle on/off the plots w/ transparent brush) but I haven't even added this code yet! I have tried coding this in reverse i.e building the buttons then adding the indicator after, same result.

Please help! much appreciated.

ps. the indicators should load right away with colored plots, this will make the button names out of sync. I am aware of this and will fix later

Hello BeachTrader11807,

Thank you for your inquiry.

It looks like OnRender() is empty in your script. If you want to use OnRender() to render lines on your chart, you will need to add the code to make sure standard plots will also render in OnRender().

Please see the below code snippet and Tip from the Help Guide:

protected override void OnRender(ChartControl chartControl, ChartScale chartScale)

{

// call the base.OnRender() to ensure standard Plots work as designed

base.OnRender(chartControl, chartScale);



// custom render logic

}

"Tip:

•If you are using standard Plots along with custom rendering from an indicator or strategy, you will need to ensure to call the base.OnRender() method for those plots to display."

You can also take a look at the SampleCustomRender indicator included in NinjaTrader that demonstrates using OnRender / SharpDX.

Please let me know if you have any other questions.

Thank you NinjaTrader_Gaby

OnRender() was some old code which I am not in need of. It works perfectly now! much appreciated.
