cAlgo User input parameters dividers
21 May 2017, 15:54


If your cBot instance as many user input parameters then the panel can become very messy real quickly. I'd like a way to add a simple divider, like the how the default instances symbol and timeframe input are grouped together and also add a group title above it again just like how the default instances symbol and timeframe input group has one.

I've attached a mock design of what I mean.

Update "Parameters Attribute" in the API with dividers

ctid219968, thanks for suggestion this. Dividers will certainly clean up the parameter groupings for an easier understanding and explanation of what they can do. Should not be hard for Spotware to include this in the parameter attribute method in the next update.

Hi Chris,

This will come with v3.5. You should get the Beta version soon.

That is great news. If possible, allowing icons that are in use throughout cTrader to be inserted before the input parameter label would be very welcome, it may make the line height higher, between each field but I think it would allow more rapid selection of an input field. But either way, I look forward to using this one day.
