Toolbar custom button to run a script
Is it possible to run a script from a user created button placed on a toolbar, as distinct from the screen?
- Custom button
- editor b912
- Missing toolbar buttons? - Building 186
AFAIK WinAPI only

Seems so. Too bad.
It would be useful that MT4 at least provided a few extra toolbar buttons that the user could code to run scripts . Maybe an alternative to to using Hotkeys.

Why not use the Favorites ?

WinAPI is overkill and favirites too limiting
Decided to develop a pseudo toolbar in a new pane using MT4's 'now availanle OBJ_BUTTON, OnChartEvent(), CHARTEVENT_OBJECT_CLICK.
Right click your script > set hotkey.

already have numerous Hotkeys attached to scripts, too many actually. Prefer a GUI alternative.
The nice aspect of using the Buttons is that they provide feedback as to 'state'
Yes, you can use object and create it in subwindow. Works like a charm.
