Adding brush dropdown control to FloatingTile 'window'

[WHICKED]

Is it possible to add a brushes color drop down to the DrawingTileTool example that you have for NT?

Hello WHICKED,

The drawing tool tile indicator uses WPF controls to create the buttons it has, the brush selector that you see in the platform comes from a custom property editor that is part of the property grid. You can still use that control in other areas but it requires adding a reference to the dll C:\Program Files\NinjaTrader 8\bin\System.Windows.Controls.WpfPropertyGrid.dll

You can find some details in the linked post, there is a sample of the code used to create an instance of the brush picker. You would have to add the instance of that control to the grid used in the drawing tool tile indicator and position it how you wanted. The selected brush can be retrieved using bPicker.SelectedBrush.
