Vertical grid lines at fixed levels (hourly) not possible?

[NinjaTrader_PaulH]

Hello Johnny,

The feature request to control the timelines already exists and your vote was added to SFT-2743, "Fixed time range on the X-axis".

Thanks for your interest to improve NinjaTrader8

Thanks, Paul.

Since making this post - I have now gotten this created as a custom indicator. Fairly easy, I think, so hopefully it can be fast to implement.

Whily my indicator is working just fine now, I'd prefer it as an inbuilt feature.

Johnny. Is it possible to get a copy of your vertical lines indicator for setting up hour breaks? Please let me know. Thank you!

[Johnny]

Sure. Send me a note.

There is a way to create vertical gridlines I use in NT7: I modified the code for the Box:
~\Documents\NinjaTrader 7\bin\Custom\Type\@ChartStyles.cs

in section:
public class BoxStyle : ChartStyle

for (int idx = fromIdx; idx <= toIdx; idx++)
{
if (idx == 0)
continue;

barColor = chartControl.GetBarOverrideColor(bars, idx);
highVal = 100000;//bars.GetHigh(idx); //it does read this: box bars are working now as vertical grid
high = chartControl.GetYByValue(bars, highVal);
lowVal = 0;//bars.GetLow(idx); //it does read this: box bars are working now as vertical grid
low = chartControl.GetYByValue(bars, lowVal);
x = chartControl.GetXByBarIdx(bars, idx);
candleOutlineColorScript = chartControl.GetCandleOutlineOverrideColor(bars, idx);

.....

Hope this helps.
