How can i set the Content of a Button as an Image

April 16th, 2017, 12:23 AM

I have this Drawing indicator that alligator posted to the Ninjatrader Forum and would like to change the NT Icons he used to .jpg images that were used in Sim22 Drawing tool. This would help make them stand out.

if (!isToolBarButtonAdded && showRuler)
{
btnRuler = new System.Windows.Controls.Button { Content = NinjaTrader.Gui.Tools.Icons.DrawRuler, };
btnRuler.Click += btnRuler_Click;
chartWindow.MainMenu.Add(btnRuler);
}
would it be possible to change the Content somehow to
Uri(Ninjatrader.Core.Globals.UserDataDir + @"bin\Custom\ToolBarIcons\Ruler.jpg"))

I only know basics of programming and any Help would be appreciated.
The whole .cs File is attached.
Thanks Woody

Try something like this :

Code

btnRuler.BackgroundImage = Image.FromFile(Ninjatrader.Core.Globals.UserDataDir + @"bin\Custom\ToolBarIcons\Ruler.jpg"");
