More Serialization Bugs - SolidBrush

[shawnj]

Please add the ability to serialize a SolidBrush.

Or better yet, can we flag individual member variables to not be serialized. In the code below, I don't need FTestBrush to be persisted (written to the disk). But I do need to be able to save the indicator in a workspace. The attribute [NonSerialized] holds the promise of dealing with these serialization errors but best I can tell, adding the attibute makes no difference conserning the serialization error.

The following indicator generates a serialization error when you try to save it in a workspace:

namespace NinjaTrader.Indicator
{
 public class aaaTestSerialize : Indicator
 {
  [NonSerialized]   //This does not seem to help.		
  public SolidBrush FTestBrush; //Fails Serialization
		
  protected override void Initialize()
  {} 
  protected override void OnBarUpdate()
  {} 
 }
}

shawnj,

Thank you for the suggestion. If you do not mind could you please post future requests to the Suggestions and Feedback section in the forums? Thank you. I have forwarded this to development.

To put this into right perspective: This is not a bug, but a limitation of the standard .NET XML serialization. Please consult MS docs for details. In the MS docs you e.g. would find how to properly use the [XmlIgnore()] attribute.

Thanks very much Dierk, with this attribute Font variables can be saved in a template, now.
