How to change/set ChartPanel.(X/Y/W/H) via code?

[gubbar924]

Hello,

I'm trying to change an existing chart panel's X/Y/W/H values via code, but I keep running into the following error:

Property or Indexer "NinjaTrader.Gui.Chart.ChartPanel.Y" cannot be assigned to -- it is read only

my understanding of this error is that normally I would have to create another instance of what ever I'm trying to assign a value to, and then give that instance the value. Unless, I'm not clear on this, I do not see how that is a viable option in this case. What I'm trying to do is resize the height and alter the Y coordinate of an indicator's chart panel.

Any idea how this can be done?


thank you in advance!

Hello Gubbar924,

Thank you for writing in.

ChartPanel.Y/X/W/H are values you can get but not set. There is no supported way to resize the height of a chart panel through code in NT8.
