"Move All" button for Ninjascript export dialog in NT7

[flonkle]

When I am exporting all of my user-defined Ninjascript indicators and strategies in NT7, I am forced to highlight each file separately before I can click the button to move them into the right-side export window that lists Ninjascript indicators/strategies to be exported in the Ninjascript dialog.

This is extremely tedious and time-consuming.

It would be very useful to have a button that moves all available indicators/strategies listed in the left-side window of the Ninjascript export dialog into the window on the right-side of the Ninjascript export dialog that lists the indicators/strategies to be exported.

Whenever the number of indicators/strategies that I want to export outnumbers the number of indicators/strategies that I don't want to export, this button will save time.

(If I only want to export a majority of the available indicators/strategies, I would just use this "Move All" button to first move all available indicators/strategies into the right-side window of the Ninjascript export dialog. Then I could highlight the smaller number of indicators/strategies that I don't want to export and move them back to the left-side window of the Ninjascript export dialog using the move-left ("<") button already available.)

Now that I think about it, it might be a good design choice to also add a "Move-All-Left" ("<<") button that moves all indicators/strategies listed in the right-side window of the Ninjascript export dialog back into the left-side window of the Ninjascript export dialog.

Hello flonkle,

Thank you for your feedback.

This will be improved in NinjaTrader 8. It will open a new window that allows you to checkmark the items you like to include in the export.

Unless this new window allows you to "Check All" choices with one click, this new window in NT8 will be no better than the current export dialog in NT7.

I will forward the suggestion to check all choices with one click in this window to development.

Are you sure of that? I have always been able to select multiple classes for export, just by using the standard Windows selection methods with CTRL or SHIFT.

Hello flonkle,

Thanks for your posts.

I have confirmed member koganam observations.

Does that capability (using shift or control selections) meet your needs?
