Custom xaml Chart Trader Template

[LoganJKTrader]

Hello, I am attempting to customize a xaml sub folder/file that contains custom code to add new buttons and featurtes to chart trader, and require that specific xaml sytax to how set up new columns, which can nest new buttons and features. I assume there is built normalized syntax to the systems xaml file's where, if a block is input I am able to populate new set of columns and then create buttons in there place, is there somewhere anyone is aware to learn what xaml looks to create new button layout space in the custom chart trader, or an example that can be continually built out and added too.

Hello LoganJKTrader,

Thank you for your post.

An example of loading XAML from an indicator is available on our forums here:

That just places the loaded button in the chart panel, however.

This page of our help guide will also be helpful and demonstrates adding new buttons via script:

You could certainly find Chart Trader and use the first example's approach to load XAML within it.

Please let us know if we may be of further assistance to you.

Thank you Kate,
Are there any examples of adding a check box to the chart trader? I am able to play around adding the checkbox through xaml and having an idea of how to impliment logic what it does and when it is starting in what state would be very helpful.

Hello LoganJKTrader,

Thank you for your reply.

I'm not aware of an example of exactly that, but would be do-able.

Here's an example that adds a checkbox:
