How to display an Indicator's Background on top of the Candles and other Indicators

[xBraf]

Hello,

I've modified this indicator but somehow candles and other indicators display on top of its background.

How to get the Background on top of the candles and any other indicator?

I tested modifying this but it's not working:

ObjectSetInteger(0,name,OBJPROP_ZORDER,0);

You need to untick the 'Chart on Foreground' option in right click on the chart >> Properties >> Common tab.

Thanks for the reply, but I it is already unticked.
Do you know any other way? Possible in code?

On a closer look I see that your objects are above the chart, so your problem is that you need a background color in this rectangle of your indicator.

I am not a coder myself, so wait for someone who knows to tell you how to do it.

If you need help with your code, you will need to show your code (at least all the relevant parts).

Set OBJPROP_BACK to false

ObjectSetInteger(chart_ID,name,OBJPROP_BACK,false);

In

void SetPanel(string name,
              int sub_window,
              int x,
              int y,
              int width,
              int height,
              color bg_color,
              color border_clr,
              int border_width)
  {
   if(ObjectCreate(0,name,OBJ_RECTANGLE_LABEL,sub_window,0,0))
     {
      ObjectSetInteger(0,name,OBJPROP_XDISTANCE,x);
      ObjectSetInteger(0,name,OBJPROP_YDISTANCE,y);
      ObjectSetInteger(0,name,OBJPROP_XSIZE,width);
      ObjectSetInteger(0,name,OBJPROP_YSIZE,height);
      ObjectSetInteger(0,name,OBJPROP_BGCOLOR,bg_color);
      ObjectSetInteger(0,name,OBJPROP_BORDER_TYPE,BORDER_FLAT);
      ObjectSetInteger(0,name,OBJPROP_WIDTH,border_width);
      ObjectSetInteger(0,name,OBJPROP_CORNER,CORNER_LEFT_UPPER);
      //ObjectSetInteger(0,name,OBJPROP_STYLE,STYLE_SOLID);
      ObjectSetInteger(0,name,OBJPROP_BACK,false);
      ObjectSetInteger(0,name,OBJPROP_SELECTABLE,0);
      ObjectSetInteger(0,name,OBJPROP_SELECTED,0);
      //ObjectSetInteger(0,name,OBJPROP_HIDDEN,true);
      ObjectSetInteger(0,name,OBJPROP_ZORDER,0);
     }
