load project from file
-
Hello
My project .mq4 file is present, and visible to MT4, but when I click "load project from file" in fxdreema I get "no record found". I did not create this .mq4 file myself.
Do I need to some other import step?
Thanks.
James.

fxDreema cannot load any .mq4 file. It can only load those .mq4 files created from it, because it adds encoded project data at the end of the file (some text starting with /*<fxdreema:)

Thank you for the speedy reply - as always, very impressive!
What about .xml? I can save a .mq4 in .xml. But when I ask fxdreema to load this file, nothing appears to happen, apart from a "1" in a pink circle beside the "fxdreema" logo.
Is it possible to load from .xml?
Thanks again.

...just tried to load an .xml created from an .mq4 that was created originally in fxdreema. I get the same "1" in a pink circle.
-
Hmmmm... Local or web version? Can you show me some example .xml or .mq4 to try?
-
I get the same result with both local and web versions. I've uploaded the .xml and .mq4 for you to try.
...actually I find the forum disallows uploading these. How do I get them to you?
-
Aha, I think they are allowed now

-
OK. Here they are...
...er, no! Sorry. I get the error, "The file is too big, maximum allowed size is 512 KiB." The files are 528 and 44 respectively, so at the moment all I can give you is the .mq4.

on-line test 2.mq4 -
Just tried on Firefox, IE, Chrome, Opera, Safari and the last Local build... it works here. Do you try on the Local version? Some programs or Windows settings that can probably cause side effect? If you want, I can check this using TeamViewer or something similar, because message "1" does not sound familiar to me

Do you want to show me some picture that is bigger than 512 kb? Because .xml file of this project is only 6.4 kb.

Thank you very much indeed for your reply.
I've tested this again, and have got the same result on both the local and web versions. I attach screen shots and guru2.xml for you. You'll notice the "1" in a pink circle, which disappears after a minute, with nothing further to see in fxdreema.

Okaaay... so, this .xml file is not created with fxDreema and cannot be uderstanded from it.
XML format is just a plain text formatted in a way to hold some database structure. The rules to write XML format are standardized, but the content is not, it can be anything.
I can see you are trying to import regular MQL4 code into fxDreema, but this is not possible. FxDreema cannot read MQL4 code, there are no such instructions. The structure of a normal MQL4 code is different than the structure of the code generated with fxDreema

Ok. Now I understand. Thanks very much for taking the trouble to assist me - and sorry for the silly question!
