Drawing object level

[edstaffin]

Hi,
There is a way to bring a drawing object the front in the UI by holding down the shift key and scrolling the mouse wheel. How can I accomplish the same thing in code?
ZOrder = -1 seems to do nothing.
Thanks ... Ed

Hello Ed,

Thanks for your post.

As was originally discussed in http://www.ninjatrader.com/support/f...t=45252&page=2
" for now you can add the unsupported ZOrder = -1 call to your indicators scripts that would move the study behind the price bars (as done in our VolumeZones)."

and also here: http://www.ninjatrader.com/support/f...ghlight=zorder

I confirm that ZOrder = -1 needs to be put in the initialize section, Like this:

protected override void Initialize()
{
ZOrder = -1;   
}

Please let me know if I can be of further assistance.

A ZOrder of -1 will take your indicator objects to the back. To bring them to the front, you need to use a ZOrder that is higher that that of the bars. Just use a pretty high number.

What you want to be on top must have the highest ZOrder number.
