Replacing indicator visual while keeping properties

[seb1509]

Hello all,

So I have some outdated looking indicators (lists,arrays, XY graphs) and I wanted to replace them with NXG indicators (look cleaner) or even silver indicators. This is all going to be done for aesthetic purposes and to keep the code consistent and clean. The only issue is if I right click an use the replace option (replacing regular XY graph for silver or NXG graph) then I lose all the properties for that graph which then creates a bunch of issues in the code. This includes graph scales settings, font settings, names etc. Is there a way of replacing just the visuals while keeping the properties?

Not that I'm aware of.  I feel like it is almost impossible because the difference between two styles of indicators is often the properties.  Maybe properties you don't always have access to.

So when you replace one style with another, but you want it to look the same, is kind of an oxymoron.  The replacement process would have to decide what properties have to change because you are asking for a new style control, but read your mind as to which properties are the ones you are expecting to stay the same.

In case I wasn't clear I am just changing a classic indicator with a silver indicator. Shouldn't properties be pretty much the same? What is different between a silver array and a classic array?

I don't know what all the differences would be.  But think of things like background colors, grid colors.  Border colors.  Stuff like that.
