Can an indicator put up a tabbed properties dialog?

[ETFVoyageur]

I have an indicator whose configuration needs are outgrowing the NT configuration panel.

The problem is not data types -- it is the sheer volume and organization of them.

Is there any way for me to put up a tabbed properties dialog for my indicator? I know that we can put up a file selection box from the NT Indicators dialog. I suppose it must be possible to put up a tabbed property dialog similarly, but I don't now how you would get the values back and forth between NT and the tabbed dialog.

EV, this should be possbile with more advanced C# coding, but unfortunately it would not be supported by us. I suggest to check into MSDN for brainstorming ideas...

I, of course, want to fit in with NT.

I suppose the best way to do it would be for the Indicators dialog for this indicator to just show a single button for its properties, and this button would work a lot like the FSB button.

Does that sound as if I am on the right track?

(I'm not asking you how to put up the tabbed dialog -- just about how best to fit in with NT.)

Bob, you would need to play around with it, we could unfortunately not provide any 'how to best approach' advise.

Understood. Thanks.

How about you set the property up as a class?

How about you set the property up as a class, and let your button bring up the tabbed "class configuration" dialog, which you can design with Windows.Forms?
