import indicators settings

[edwardseer]

hi, when i switch from my offline to the web or web to offline, i have to redo add the indicators from start each time. is there a way to import the project along with the indicators

[fxDreema]

Nope. But it is a good idea, at least indicator parameters can be added into the project data of the EA. Well, I don't know when this will become fact

[edwardseer]

can you also add the import of variables when u copy blocks of one project to the other?

[fxDreema]

Indicators are added once and they are not per-project, they are accessible from all projects

ya. that may not be an important addition haha. coz i was dealing with web and offline just now so i thought of this. and the import indicator function usually dun give correct inputs and buffer so i have to manually add all the settings.
however the import of variables when you copy a group of blocks from one project to another would be nice to include.
i seperate out parts of the project and deal with them individually before combining them so when i copy over to the main project, i would have to create new variables and check through all the variables used again which sometimes will waste a lot of time trying to figure out which i forgot to correct.

er could you help look into copying blocks along with their variables into new project? that feature is important to me. i created a number of mini projects which i share using the share link (some advertising for your awesome product :P) and some of them i would like to copy into new projects of mine but the variables will always be messed up and i will need to check through the blocks and create new variables.
although the mini projects usually contain only about 10 blocks which are easy to copy over but my personal projects got a lot of blocks and quite a number of variables scattered in them which really took up a lot of time to "debug" the blocks whenever i copy them to the main project.

It would be nice to like make each block you copy over auto add the variables into the new project.

Thank you.

I think I need to change the way Constants and Variables are working in general, which is not so easy. They are associated by some hidden ID numbers, not by name, which was a good idea when copying blocks between projects was not even possible.
Now I'm actually rewriting the whole fxDreema, so at some point I will look at these problem, but now... now the existing code is a little bit weird and I don't even want to touch it, because when I do that - something broke. That was the reason why I decided to rewrite the code. And also to be object oriented

So what I'm gonna do now is to apologize for the problem, give you 1 month bonus (you already got it) and hopefully I will finish the rewrite process with this problem solved in some way.

[edwardseer]

No problem. Wasn't expecting a 1 month bonus as it is still an awesome product to me . Thank you.

Hopefully this problem can be resolved after you finish the rewrite process.
