How difficult would it be to sort by DisplayOrder on the html page generated from "Display Study Documentation" button in the Add Study dialog? It would be nice to have the descriptions on the html page for the "Input Name | Input Description" to be sorted in the same order as they appear when looking at the study settings of a given custom study. |

We try to have the documentation in the same order as the Inputs on the studies. If something is out of order, then please let us know and we will correct it.

Hi John, this happens when a custom study uses .DisplayOrder to set an order different than the order input variables are declared that I see the issue. For example, SCInputRef Input0 = sc.Input[0]; SCInputRef Input1 = sc.Input[1]; // set name, etc Input1.DisplayOrder = 1; Input0.DisplayOrder = 2; This results in the .html listing Input0, then Input1 descriptions, when DisplayOrder would have it Input1 then Input 0. |

We can not help with the documentation for custom studies. That is up to that developer to document their software.

Let me take one more crack at describing this since this is not helping with the documentation, it's a request for how Sierra Chart generates documentation for studies. Let's use Sierra's own "Sierra Chart Custom Studies and Examples" custom study DLL as our example... Please see attached image. Add custom study... 1) Choose Double Stochastic - Bressert 2) Click Display Study Documentation 3) See the html page that opens and note the ordering of the Inputs. The ordering follows the order of the sc.Input[] array indexes. (see #4) This request is to have that html page follow the order specified by the .DisplayOrder (see #5) In this case "Smoothing Length" would be 3rd not 5th. |
