DashStyle.Style enum?

[duck_CA]

tying to include an option in the "Parameters" section of the Indicator Window to select the DashStyle options along with the Color options that I already have which work correctly

#region Variables
// Wizard generated variables
private Color lineColor = Color.Cyan;
privateint line_Size = 1;
private DashStyle style = DashStyle.Custom;

// Serialize our Color object
[Browsable(false)]
publicstring StyleSerialize
{
get { return NinjaTrader.Gui.Design.SerializableDashStyle.ToString(style); }//SerializableColor
set { style = NinjaTrader.Gui.Design.SerializableDashStyle.FromString(value); }
}

duck_CA,

Unfortunately this is outside the scope of what we can offer support for. Thank you for understanding.

[duck_CA]

I understand Josh...Ninja has been extremely helpful and appreciate it...

Can you tell me if this is even possible?

Thanks again

[NinjaTrader_Josh]

Technically, yes, but unfortunately I just don't have any information on how you could proceed to realize it though.

[duck_CA]

where this is a will...there's a way...lol

DashStyle is an enumeration, is that true, duck_CA? If so, wouldn't an enumeration serialised by the C#- compiler automaticaly? I thought so. Have you tried just to define a property for your dash style to see, how it works?

Sorry but I can't seem to understand what you mean as this stuff is very challenging for me...

I need somehow to try and do what you had mentioned but not sure where to start

thanks

[Ralph]

I understand. In the reference sample section is an example, how to define an own enum to be used with the property grid. I would try to install it and to modify it for your dash style.

Thank you for pointing me in the right direction Ralph !

[Ralph]

If you don't get it working that (simple) way, post it again. We will find a solution.

#region Variables
private DashStyle hlinestyle = DashStyle.Solid; 

protectedoverridevoid OnBarUpdate()
{
DrawHorizontalLine("Current_price",Close[0],LineColor,HorizLineStyle,line_Size);
}

#region Properties
 
[Description("Horizontal line style")]
[Category("Parameters")]
public DashStyle HorizLineStyle
{
get { return hlinestyle; }
set { hlinestyle = value; }
}

Looks good, I would have done the same.
