About side set variable blocks

[ClauTrade]

Hi,

I think that the setting of variable in the side of blocks is a very useful implement.

However I would like to request something:

**1. Is impossible to identify the blocks that change variable in the side? **
Is very difficult to find the blocks where is the variable side set.

It would be possible to mark (a little point, color, shadow ...) the block that use the side variable set?

2. The side variable set block do not accept "string"

If I set a "text" in the side of the block for a variable "string" type I will get error! Is possible to fix it?

Could you add the tool to change the "vertical size of the comment/variable window"? When there are several variables it will be more easy with a more large window... unfortunately is a fix size yet.

Many thanks for your support!

Try with "BUY" instead of BUY

I guess there are issues when many variables are used and I will eventually do something about this, but I will recommend to try to not use so many variables. Yes, sometimes they are good way to do something easier, but the idea of the EA builder is not to become second MetaEditor. Even when you code in any programming language, it's not a good idea to have many global variables.

Otherwise in the Variables list, when you hover with the mouse over one of them, the blocks where this Variable is used is glowing like this - http://prntscr.com/afgbpy
By the way, in this particular project I like how you initially put the values from each indicator in a Variable, so then you don't need to select the same indicator over and over again in the blocks.

Hi...ok, many thanks for the info!

...yes... of course "text" ... I had not try it! It work now!

Yes, I have seen the glowing of the block but this not work when a block change variable from the side! ...so, if something do not work fine is difficult to detect from where the variable change... is necessary to search block by block (I needed to do it more times). It would be sufficient to detect all blocks with set in the variable side. Otherwise is not a bug ... so if is easy to solve, well, else do not worry!

Yes, is true for too much variables but I need it because I'm working with 4 timeframe, indicator and "formulas" to define condition. Without variables is too much complicated!!

I have see that if the blocks are ordered in a correct sequence (first the system fix variables and then use it to compare, formulas etc..) ...until now I had not problem ... I hope because I have still add more variables!!

If I detect bug I'll contact you ... maybe this can help you to solve the problems!

Thanks. Regards!

And I was thinking that blocks are glowing in this case as well... Maybe there is some bug or I didn't make that for some reason which I don't remember

Hi,

I had try to set the text in this format "text" without error and it work but really there is a problem!

The side block variables accept the text and it work but if you open the block again %(#FF0000)[the cell of the set is empty! (it lost the value ...not fix the input value in the cell)]

The variable work (sure is present in the code) but if you save again the block with the empty cell it erase the value.

Finally ... is impossible to see the set values in the cell and is a problem whet change another setting of the block because when you save, it bored the "text" because it save with empty value!

Please I hope you fix it!

Thanks
