Hello tkaboris,
Thank you for your note.
Yes, you may toggle the color of the button based on whether it has been clicked or not. My colleague has posted an example of this here:
I found the code posted by NinaTrader_ZacharyG and it's exactly what I needed! I couldn't have accomplished this on my own and I'm extremely grateful for the generosity. One small modification I'd like to make is to change the button color when it's clicked. Does anyone have a snippet of code showing how this is accomplished

Hello tkaboris,
Thank you for your response.
Here is the portion of the code that shows what happens OnButtonClick for the 5 different EMA buttons used in the script:
Code:private void OnButtonClick(object sender, RoutedEventArgs rea) { System.Windows.Controls.Button button = sender as System.Windows.Controls.Button; if (button == ema1Button && button.Name == "EMA1Button" && button.Content == ema1ButtonOn) { button.Content = ema1ButtonOff; button.Name = "EMA1ButtonOFF"; ema1ButtonClicked = true; button.Background = Brushes.Gray; Plots[0].Brush = Brushes.Transparent; ForceRefresh(); return; } if (button == ema2Button && button.Name == "EMA2Button" && button.Content == ema2ButtonOn) { button.Content = ema2ButtonOff; button.Name = "EMA2ButtonOFF"; ema2ButtonClicked = true; button.Background = Brushes.Gray; Plots[1].Brush = Brushes.Transparent; ForceRefresh(); return; } if (button == ema3Button && button.Name == "EMA3Button" && button.Content == ema3ButtonOn) { button.Content = ema3ButtonOff; button.Name = "EMA3ButtonOFF"; ema3ButtonClicked = true; button.Background = Brushes.Gray; Plots[2].Brush = Brushes.Transparent; ForceRefresh(); return; } if (button == ema4Button && button.Name == "EMA4Button" && button.Content == ema4ButtonOn) { button.Content = ema4ButtonOff; button.Name = "EMA4ButtonOFF"; ema4ButtonClicked = true; button.Background = Brushes.Gray; Plots[3].Brush = Brushes.Transparent; ForceRefresh(); return; } if (button == ema5Button && button.Name == "EMA5Button" && button.Content == ema5ButtonOn) { button.Content = ema5ButtonOff; button.Name = "EMA5ButtonOFF"; ema5ButtonClicked = true; button.Background = Brushes.Gray; Plots[4].Brush = Brushes.Transparent; ForceRefresh(); return; } if (button == ema1Button && button.Name == "EMA1ButtonOFF" && button.Content == ema1ButtonOff) { button.Content = ema1ButtonOn; button.Name = "EMA1Button"; ema1ButtonClicked = false; button.Background = EMA1Brush; Plots[0].Brush = EMA1Brush; ForceRefresh(); return; } if (button == ema2Button && button.Name == "EMA2ButtonOFF" && button.Content == ema2ButtonOff) { button.Content = ema2ButtonOn; button.Name = "EMA2Button"; ema2ButtonClicked = false; button.Background = EMA2Brush; Plots[1].Brush = EMA2Brush; ForceRefresh(); return; } if (button == ema3Button && button.Name == "EMA3ButtonOFF" && button.Content == ema3ButtonOff) { button.Content = ema3ButtonOn; button.Name = "EMA3Button"; ema3ButtonClicked = false; button.Background = EMA3Brush; Plots[2].Brush = EMA3Brush; ForceRefresh(); return; } if (button == ema4Button && button.Name == "EMA4ButtonOFF" && button.Content == ema4ButtonOff) { button.Content = ema4ButtonOn; button.Name = "EMA4Button"; ema4ButtonClicked = false; button.Background = EMA4Brush; Plots[3].Brush = EMA4Brush; ForceRefresh(); return; } if (button == ema5Button && button.Name == "EMA5ButtonOFF" && button.Content == ema5ButtonOff) { button.Content = ema5ButtonOn; button.Name = "EMA5Button"; ema5ButtonClicked = false; button.Background = EMA5Brush; Plots[4].Brush = EMA5Brush; ForceRefresh(); return; }
