Hi, I am looking to hide the input parameters for my custom studies before I distribute them. I see there is a protect with password button which hides the input params. - Where is the password saved and what format is it saved in? Can a user access this file and decode the pass? - I am looking to distribute my studies. Is password protecting them the best option to hide the params or there are better ways to do it? - Is there a way to hide the chart information on the BarPeriod? eg is I am using a flex renko config with some settings, can I protect that? I will be leveraging SC's allowing a DLL for specific accounts function to protect overall access to my DLLs. My query here is around protecting the input params data. Thanks you!

If you are not wanting users to have access to the Inputs, then set this up through your custom study, not through the password protection option in the studies to graph area. Just do not create the Inputs in your study.

Or Keep the inputs, but comment out the name: //sc.Input[0].Name = "hidden input";
sc.Input[0].SetInt(10); |

Thank you both. I am also toying with the idea of taking a mid path of hiding vs revealing. Store the params in the DB and then fetch them in Study's initialization section. That way I wont need to create same study multiple times for different markets.

Hi SC engineering team, 1) I know you folks are super busy but can I request you to add a "Password protect all studies" button on the "Studies" pop up. I have chartbooks with about 20-30 studies in each. Would be much easier to - Set a password for all of them in one go - Maintain a password rotation policy after a certain time period If this makes sense to you, I will much appreciate you providing this feature. 2) Is there a way I can hide and lock the settings that get displayed at the top of each chart/study region. I know there is a hide checkbox for each study but how do I lock that so it cannot be unhidden. eg if I have customized a MACD, I can hide the parameters on the study using password protection. But the display at the top of chart region shows the parameter values. Is there a way I can hide and lock it please? Thank you! Date Time Of Last Edit: 2024-09-09 08:04:48

1. We take all suggestions, but we can not say when we would get to any particular item. 2. There is not a way to do this. You would need to hide the Inputs as noted previously.
