    Set bar color outside of OnBarUpdate()

    Hello,
    I have to modify a bar's color and back color outside of OnBarUpdate() in a different thread as I get the data I use to color the bars asynchronously. Let's say I want to modify the color of bar N (bar index starting at 0 for first bar). I do BarColorSeries[CurrentBar - N] = some color. The problem is that, depending on the volatility and the rate of creation of new bars, it tends to miss bar N and modify the color of a nearby bar. How can I get it to always accurately modify the color of the target bar under these conditions?
    Thanks

    supernatural, this would unfortunately not be supported outside of OnBarUpdate() context, as you could run into the race / timing conditions you experienced, as it's really tied to the bars series / index.
