New feature request for EFS

[philli4093]

Could you add the ability to have a color selector box be one of the options for askforinput within the functionParameter settings.
I would like to give the user the ability to select a color for a line to be drawn on a chart, and it would be great to have a color box next to the text which passes a hex color value to the functionParameter as an integer.

Thanks

If I understand correctly what you are asking that option is already available now. See enclosed code as an example.

var vMA = null;

function preMain() {
    setPriceStudy(true);
    setStudyTitle("MAInput-Test");
    setCursorLabelName("MA", 0);
    setDefaultBarFgColor(Color.blue, 0);
  
    var fp1 = new FunctionParameter("MALength", FunctionParameter.NUMBER);
    fp1.setLowerLimit(1);        
    fp1.setDefault(10);
    
    var fp2 = new FunctionParameter("MAOffset", FunctionParameter.NUMBER);
    fp2.setLowerLimit(0);        
    fp2.setDefault(0);
    
    var fp3 = new FunctionParameter("MAColor",FunctionParameter.COLOR);
    fp3.setDefault(Color.red);
    
    askForInput();
    
}

function main(MALength,MAOffset,MAColor) {
   
    if (vMA == null) vMA = new MAStudy(MALength, MAOffset, "Close", MAStudy.SIMPLE);
    setBarFgColor(MAColor,0);
    
    return vMA.getValue(MAStudy.MA);
}

It has been available since the Function Parameters were introduced (build 564).
