How to add color input in NT8

[JerryWar]

The wizard doesn't seem to accept color inputs in NT8. Can these be added in manually
as in NT7 ?

A lot of searching but I found an example..

[XmlIgnore]
public Brush MyBrush { get; set; }

[Browsable(false)]
public string MyBrushSerialize
{
get { return Serialize.BrushToString(MyBrush); }
set { MyBrush = Serialize.StringToBrush(value); }
}

I tried using this and I get an error message. "NinjaTrader.Gui.Serialize" does not contain a definition for "BrushtoString" and vice versa for "StringtoBrush"
I am using System.Xml.Serialization in my system declarations.

Does anyone know why this is not working ?

Thanks

NT8Beta2 has not yet dispensed with slang. It uses Brush2String etc, not BrushToString. And in any case your capitalization is also wrong.

That worked. The funny thing is that this was their example I posted. I would appreciate it if you pointed out where the capitalization was wrong as it compiled with replacing the "To"

Beta 3 will see a replacement of Brush2String-> BrushToString(). There was some documentation which prematurely used the Beta 3 name.

"To" is not the same as "to", which is what you wrote. CaSe SeNsItIvE.

Ahhhhh- That's why I could not find it. The original code snippet I posted had it correct. In the post of the error message I copied it incorrectly.
I was checking the code not the post.

Regardless, It looks like they took up your suggestion to Replace the "2"s in the next version.

Thanks
