Sorting Groups of Controls

[swcooke]

I have three different Groupnames with various controls. I am using the Order attribute to set the order within the group. How do I set the order of the Groups themselves?

Hello swooke,

Thanks for your post.

The CategoryOrder Attribute could be used for this task.

[Gui.CategoryOrder("My Strings", 1)] // display "My Strings" first
[Gui.CategoryOrder("My Bools", 2)] // then "My Bools"
[Gui.CategoryOrder("My Ints", 3)] // and finally "My Ints"
public class MyCustomIndicator : Indicator
{
  #region Properties   
 
  [Display(GroupName="My Ints")]
  public int MyCustomInt
  { get; set; }
  
  [Display(GroupName="My Bools")]
  public bool MyCustomBool
  { get; set; }
 
  [Display(GroupName="My Strings")]
  public string MyCustomString
  { get; set; }
 
  #endregion
}

Where in the overall code is this part of the code placed - Thanks

[Gui.CategoryOrder("My Strings", 1)] // display "My Strings" first
[Gui.CategoryOrder("My Bools", 2)] // then "My Bools"
[Gui.CategoryOrder("My Ints", 3)] // and finally "My Ints"

Hello DTSSTS,

Thanks for your note.

This code would be placed at the class level in your script as seen in the code that was shared by my colleague Jim.

See the attached reference sample demonstrating this.

Let us know if we may assist further.
