NT Upgrade Drops .txt files from NinjaTrader.Custom Project

[Steve L]

A minor request:

I just upgraded from 8.0.17.2 to 8.0.18.0.

When I re-opened the NinjaTrader.Custom project in Visual Studio, all of my text files had been excluded from the project.

This is pretty minor, obviously, and it was easy to include them in the project again. But I had dozens of files that I had to individually added back.

I keep all of my notes in text files in the NinjaTrader.Custom project using Visual Studio and I can check them all into source control.

It's just very convenient to have notes and code all together there.

I'd like to request a feature that avoids excluding harmless files like this that are already present in the project such as

* text (txt)
* html (htm)
* markdown (md)

which people might be using for notes or to keep track of their testing.

Again, minor request, but would be appreciated.

Hello Steve L,

I will forward your request to the NinjaTrader Development for consideration.
Once I have a tracking ID for this request I will post in this thread for future reference.

Thanks.

While were at it, there are a few other file types that would be nice to keep as well. All of these support notes and trading journal types of things.

- csv
- png
- jpg
- xlsx

I sometimes export the performance report from Strategy Analyzer as csv or xlsx. And save chart images using the Save Chart Image feature.
