Layout "misconfig"(?)

[alphatango]

Hello, I had to reinstall NT8. I got everything back. I use the dark theme. I went to my Ninjascript editor and it has a white background. I can't for the life of me, figure out what is needed to change that. It's the only white thing on my screen. The cursor is also white which makes editing code very difficult. Please help!

Also Is there a way to pin NS Output to the most recent thing? As soon as I start my script the output starts coming and runs right off the screen. I can't monitor it in real time like I'd like to, I have to keep scrolling down or click holding the scroll bar at the bottom. Any help with this would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

Hello alphatango,

Thanks for your post.

Please try to change the Skin option in the Tools > Options > General tab > Skin drop-down menu to a different skin template, restart NinjaTrader, then change the Skin option back to the skin template you want to use, and restart NinjaTrader again. Does this resolve the behavior regarding the NinjaScript Editor window?

We have made the Development team aware of the behavior regarding the NinjaScript Output window not 'snapping' to the last print that occurs. A fix will be implemented for this in the next version release of NinjaTrader (8.1.2.1). We do not have an ETA for when this version will be released.

If you use the old skins (which I had done when I copied in some saved folders from 8.1.1.7 not realizing the format changed) you can end up with all sorts of weirdness in 8.1.2.0. If you have a modified skin I would suggest re-modifying it using the 8.1.2.0 skins as the starting point.

yeah, no change at all.

I posted a screen clip. Left is the chart. All good there. Top R is the Strategy Analyzer. All good. The bottom is Editor. The background is white. The cursor is also white which is bizarre. If you change it to a Light theme, the cursor turns black.

Came down to Uninstalling NT and reinstalling. It was a booger to go in and set up all my connections, set up my workspace and everything, but I couldn't figure out why it wouldn't paint the background black. Issue is resolved now. No idea what happened.
