I used Tools->Indicator Builder to create a custom indicator like so:



Clicked "Generate Indicator Code"
Clicked "Compile"
Clicked "Save to My Indicators Folder"

This creates a new Folder "My Indicators" in View->Indicators, which contains my new "Test0" indicator. :)

Now, if I close and restart WL, the Folder "My Indicators" is gone... :(

Did you start WL with elevated privileges (Admin mode)?

Just saw this sentence in Help->Indicators->Custom Indicators->Editing your Indicator:

QUOTE:
You must close and restart Wealth-Lab in Admin mode in order to use the changed indicator.


And indeed, if I start WL in admin mode (and only then), it has the "My Indicators" folder.

BUT:
* The indicator worked in non-admin mode before I closed WL
* why is admin mode necessary (more than once), this smells like a bug...
* help says, this is necessary after (re-) editing a custom indicator (only?)

We'll look into it ASAP. It seems that we lost the "My Indicators" folders recently.

All your indicator code, however, is preserved in User Data folder: \Indicators

I was just going to report that issue myself. Great, that the forum has a well working search! Thank you for looking into it.

It's fixed in the next upcoming release. It was a side effect of the new functionality where you can right click on a tree and save the expanded node state as default.

Thanks, Glitch! Is there a fixed release schedule? Or in other words; do you have an ETA when the fix might be released?
