Background

[zooinek]

Hi,

please who can help me with this:..

I have any chart (for example 5min timeframe) and there is 40 bars.
And my indicator should change color of background the bars between 10:00 and 10:30.
What method can change background color of any selected bar, or selected time.. ?

Thank you

Example is in the attachment

did not try this, but it should look something like the following:

if (ToTime(Time[0]) >= 100000 && ToTime(Time[0]) <= 103000)

{BackColor = Color.LightGreen;}

You know.. when you are adding any indicator to the chart you can set number of panel where will the the colors painted.

Hello,

When you attach the indicator, just attach it to the panel you want to color.

sure, but i have to set panel 1 as default value for the indicator in code..
when is somebody attaching the indicator there is panel=1 as default setting
Is there any way how to do that?

For panel 1 under initialize ():
Overlay = true;
for the other panels:
Overlay = false;
