Changing indicator name ?

[T2020]

I imported a custom Macd indicator . I wanted to make some calculation changes ( which
I did with no problem ) ,but trying to change the name as well as the calculation causes an error . Is there some general reason why changing the name would cause a problem .
Thanks

Hello T2020,

When changing the name be sure to Right Click > Save As > Give it a new name.

Changing the name of the class is not enough, as all the NinjaScript generated code will not compile correctly.

If you continue to see issues here, please let us know any error messages you're getting.

I did do that ....

I don't understand "Class " ,could you explain that a bit ?

Thanks

I wouldn't worry about class too much. You can see the class declaration near the top:
public class indicatorName : Indicator
{

This is the area where I suspected you had changed the name.

You changed the name in the right place - what error messages are you getting as a result of this name change?

Here's the error I get just by changing the name and after I try to compile it .

Unfortunately it's not clear from the screenshot what the error message is. You would need to expand the error column to view the whole message.

Generally you should be OK renaming indicators, unless they use types that are unique per namespace. Enums, for example, must be unique per namespace.
