Hi,
Would it be possible to add Folder in VS and MC NET (see attachement) to classify and to manage indicators and functions.
With Visual Studio we can add folder, but it don't seem to work with MC.NET. (When we put an indicator in a folder, it seem that MC .NET editor loose track of the indicator ?)
Under Visual Studio, this feature is pratical to organize the project
Would it be possible in the next release of MC.NET to add this feature.
This would be practical .

Re: Would it be possible to add Folder in VS and MC NET ?
Good thinking. I was planning to submit a feature request about the same issue.
More specifically, you can organize your code in folders in the PowerLanguage .Net editor. However, those folders don't show up in Visual Studio when you open the PLStudies2010.sln file. Instead, all of the functions, indicators and signals show up in a long, single list in Visual Studio's Solution Explorer. This makes it difficult to find particular files in Visual Studio.
It would be better if any folders in the MultiCharts editor were reproduced in Visual Studio, and vice versa. It looks like Visual Studio simply mirrors the underlying folder structure of the .cs files in the filesystem -- e.g., if you create a subfolder in the Solution Explorer, then Visual Studio creates an actual folder in the file system that matches that subfolder, and puts the .cs file there.
In contrast, the PowerLanguage .Net editor seems to store all of the .cs files in a single folder in the file system. I.e., if you create a new folder in the editor, it won't actually create a corresponding subfolder in the file system. This might need to be changed for Visual Studio compatibility.

That is correct.More specifically, you can organize your code in folders in the PowerLanguage .Net editor. However, those folders don't show up in Visual Studio when you open the PLStudies2010.sln file.
Implementation of this functionality is not a trivial one.Would it be possible to add Folder in VS and MC NET (see attachement) to classify and to manage indicators and functions.
We will consider such improvement in the future.
