This is not what I'm seeing. I uncheck 'Visible' for the indicator and the Print calls are still printing to the output window. The indicator *is* processing, just not shown. How to make that it won't process?
(without removing it from the list in the Indicators window)
Thank you

Hi Paul. Thank you for the video link.
My Print calls are not in OnBarUpdate but in OnStateChange->State.Configure. When the indicator loads it reads from several external files and spits out information to the output window. When not needed, I would like the indicator to stay in the list so its position in the list and placement on the chart are remembered. Otherwise I have to manually position it and drag to set its size every time I load it, which is inconvenient. At the same time, I do not want this information printed every time I open the Indicators window to change a parameter in another indicator (which is often). Thus, I would like the indicator to stay in the list but be disabled (not process meaning not load) until such time that I activate it.
How to accomplish that?
Thanks.

Well, so I simply added my own 'Enabled' property. It's not the same as if there was a built-in property that spared calling the indicator at all, and it means I have to check/uncheck both 'Visible' and 'Enabled' each time, and it means if I want the achieve the same with other indicators I have to add a custom Enabled property to each of them.
But it will do for now. It's too small a thing to make a feature request for.
Kind regards.

Hello digibob,
Thanks for your reply.
Glad you were able to find a solution.
Another alternative would be to check this.InVisible In OnStateChange(): https://ninjatrader.com/support/help...?isvisible.htm This is set by the visible check box.Paul H.NinjaTrader Customer Service
