CollectionEditor 'Prompt'

[saltminer]

Hi,
I've duplicated a GannFan tool, and would like to change the Prompt of the collection editor to my own string (so that it no longer says "7 Gann angles". I can't find any documentation or examples of this. Can you advise?

Many thanks,
saltminer

Hello saltminer,

In this situation you need to change the GannAngleContainer classes property for GannAngles:

[PropertyEditor("NinjaTrader.Gui.Tools.CollectionEditor")]
[Display(ResourceType = typeof(Custom.Resource), Name = "NinjaScriptDrawingToolsGannAngles", Prompt = "NinjaScriptDrawingToolsGannAnglesPrompt", GroupName = "NinjaScriptGeneral", Order = 99)]
[SkipOnCopyTo(true)]
public List<GannAngle> GannAngles { get; set; }

to

[PropertyEditor("NinjaTrader.Gui.Tools.CollectionEditor")]
[Display([B]Name = "My Custom Name", Prompt = "1 Gann angle|{0} Gann angles|Add Gann angle..|Edit Gann angle...|Edit Gann angles...",[/B] GroupName = "NinjaScriptGeneral", Order = 99)]
[SkipOnCopyTo(true)]
public List<GannAngle> GannAngles { get; set; }

For custom resources you can look in the Documents\NinjaTrader 8\bin\Custom\Resource.resx file to get the Prompt strings for property editors that are used.
