Indicator Template Name

[DavidHP]

I have an indicator that has several setting that I change and create a new templalte for each change.
I name the templates similar to the way chart templates are named.
Is there a way to know which template is being loaded on the indicator?

This would be helpful if it is possible to have the name displayed in the indicator or a way to access the template name after it is loaded on the indicator.
Is there a way to access this information?
Thanks

Hello DavidHP,

Thank you for your post.

You could consider adding the template name into the "Label" field of the indicator's settings. This way, whenever you load a template the label will be updated to include the template name. For more information about working with indicators:

If this is an indicator you have developed or you have access to the source code for the indicator, you could also consider adding a user input for a string where you may type the template name so that it appears in the indicator parameters but doesn't necessarily have to be added to the labeled information that appears at the top of the chart. Whether a property is displayed on the UI or not is set by the Browsable attribute:
