Hi,

Where can I find the complete documentation to the API that lists the available functions and their usage? The Programming Guide is insufficient. I found out about a trailing stop function (ExitAtAutoTrailingStop) via auto complete which is not covered in the Programming Guide.

Thanks.

The QuickRef (Help menu) covers all supported functions of the WealthScript namespace.

P.S. Just to clarify: usage of the "Library" per se is not supported (e.g. in 3rd party apps). We support the Wealth-Lab client application and not the DLL library working in a custom application. Among the supported functions are those from the WealthScript namespace and a subset of classes from the "library" e.g. Bars, Alert, Position and so on, covered in the QuickRef.

Eugene,

It might help if there was a link somewhere to Microsoft .NET Framework 2.0 documentation. The documentation with wealth-lab only contains help on the extensions in the application. APIs in the .NET Framework wouldn't be documented within wealth-lab. I believe this link is the starting point...

http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkId=180692

It may be a little overwhelming as there is a lot of stuff on the Microsoft site, but at least people will have an idea where to start for researching framework apis.

I always felt it would be helpful to have this link on the Help menu in Wealth-Lab. If people agree, I could create a support ticket to help get it on the enhancement list.

Tim,

Just my opinion on having this link on the Help menu: overloading the Wealth-Lab's interface with unnecessary links isn't a good idea. 3rd party links eventually change. Besides, one can find all of that by searching the net. As skillful googling is something that developers possess, I can't imagine a developer looking for .NET 2.0 documentation in the Wealth-Lab's menu.
