Enum in Input parameters

[webus]

Hi,

I have a cusom enum. Let's assume it is:

        public enum SignalType{
            Buy,
            Sell,
            No,
            Both
        }
​

I know how to add this enum in the input parameters. However, in the input parameters I want to see not just 'Buy', 'Sell', etc options, but 'Type Buy', 'Type Sell', etc. I want to see it with spaces (not 'TypeBuy', 'TypeSell').
Something like this. We see 'On bar close', and not 'OnBarClose':


How can I do this?

Hello webus,

Thanks for your post.

A public user-defined NinjaScript property would need to be created in your script to display the user-defined enum in the Properties section of the UI when adding the script to a chart.

Here is a reference sample demonstrating how to accomplish this with a custom enum.

A custom type converter would be necessary to have custom display attributes in the properties menu. However, custom type converters are not supported by NinjaTrader Support.
