Application Objects

 

Introduction

 

We use the word 'object' or 'item' to point out:

 

·         Trading systems

·         Watch-list

·         Composite indexes

·         List of rules

·         List of symbols

·         Simulator metrics

·         ...

 

All these objects share some common controls.

These controls are used to manage, save and load these objects.

 

 

Each object is stored in a specific file.
To rename an object, double click on its name, and then type a new name.
An object can either belong to a category or not.
These objects can be shared, you can visit www.quantshare.com for a list of all shared objects.

 

The majority of the plug-ins have drag & drop features that let you drag objects and drop them on widget or bookmark panels.

Bookmark panel

 

 

This panel hosts folders and objects (generally shortcuts of objects are used)

Right click on the bookmark panel to open a menu. Using this menu, you can create a new folder, add an object or object shortcut, update a folder name...

You can drag and drop objects within the bookmark panel to change their locations or to move them from a folder to another.

 

Right click on any object to display a menu. The menu content is specific to each object type.

Example: 'Trading system' object menu.
