How to change name property of Plot shown in DataBox, programatically

[balltrader]

I read through this thread https://ninjatrader.com/support/foru...t-names-around

but I still have this question:

How can I change the display name of the plot that is shown in the DataBox during code execution?


I hacked my way through the hierarchy and found this will work:

this.Plots[3].Name = "GartmannsGlasses" ;

this is helpful when you are testing code and reusing plot objects for new values.
This name property will also be displayed in the properties box during configuration of the indicator etc.

Is there any way to reference the Plot object via its currently assigned name?
Or it is only able to be referenced by it's ordinal index?

thanks
