Hello Nick123,

Thank you for your posts.

Any parameters that the user can set at run time would show up in the Strategy Analyzer generally. However, this example from a different thread demonstrates showing and hiding properties based on an Enum selection that will work in the Optimizer:

Please let us know if we may be of further assistance to you.

This is not what I looking for.
I mean when optimization during backtesting.

The data still show up even I tick "Value2"
Below is the picture.

It do not hide.

Hello Nick123,

Thank you for your reply.

I'm not seeing the same on my end when I test with an optimization - I see a dropdown with the enum selections and when they are changed the toggle values disappear and reappear depending on which enum was chosen.

What version of the platform are you using? You can find this under Help > About. The current version is 8.0.24.2.

Thanks in advance; I look forward to assisting you further.

Hello Nick123,

Thank you for your replies.

I believe you downloaded the second version of the script, not the first version - the first uses a dropdown while the second uses checkboxes. Try installing this version instead.

[Nick123]

Thanks for fast reply.
Now it work.

However, I have another question.
In previous version, why there is a tick option for "myEum"

while in the new one, it become dropdown.
Can i know where is the trick ??

Hello Nick123,

Thank you for your reply.

The difference is that in the other version myEnum has the NinjaScriptProperty attribute applied, making the enum a parameter, which then shows those checkboxes in the UI:
