Hide window title bar

[Bidder]

Is there a way to hide the window title bar?

According to the WPF docs the following should work but it does not seem to.

foreach (var window in NinjaTrader.Core.Globals.AllWindows)
{[INDENT]window.Dispatcher.Invoke(new Action(() =>
{[/INDENT][INDENT=2]if (window.Title=="Market Analyzer")
{
window.WindowStyle=WindowStyle.None;
}[/INDENT][INDENT]
}));[/INDENT]
 }

Hello Bidder,

NinjaTrader windows are already using WindowStyle.None as the title bar area is custom made and is not the actual Windows title bar.

No, there are no supported methods to remove this. However, using unsupported code, you might be able dig around the visual tree and remove any rectangles, grids, etc that make up that custom title area.

Unfortunately, this would be outside of what the NinjaTrader Support team is able to assist with.
This thread will remain open for any community members that would like to provide unsupported code.

Thanks Chelsea.

This will do it. Tested on charts and market analyzer.

hi Bidder, Can you please in where to put this code.. I have some minimal experience with coding small indicator.

[Bidder]

Hi, couple of things.
First, this site has messed up all the code in the code box. All the text that looks like:
CODE]{[INDENT][FONT=Arial][/CODE]
This is not part of the code but is html formatting.

I put the code in the "OnWindowCreated" method of an addon.
