Horizontal Line Properties

 

I want to set the horixontal line properties in my indicator to 'Draw object as background'. Does anyone know how I can code this?

I can click on a pivot line and and set this manually each time I open a chart which is not practical as their are over a dozen of them and as far as I can see it can't be set globally in mt4.

 

I may have missed your point, but, it reads as though you haven't looked at the chart properties tab:

Once you tick the box, you don't need to set it for each object.

Thanks for the reply oneday. I had a look and tried ticked and unticked it made no difference.

I have a pivot indicator which has about twenty lines and each one has a price marker on the Y axis which obscures the price of the currency which moves up and down the Y axis behind the price markers of the horizontal pivot lines.

If I double click one of the horizontal lines right click and select 'Horizontal Line properties" I can check 'Draw object as background' which will then let the currency price marker move on top of the pivot line price markers so I can see the current price.

I would like to know how to set this globally in mt4 if that's possible or how to code it into my indicator. Can anyone help?

I have looked at those but can not find a parameter to set. I have a basic understanding of the code and how it works. I can make minor adjustments but that is the limit of my knowledge. Still need some help, anyone?
