ZOrderType is not always working

[beobast]

Hello,

I would like my custom drawings tools to be drawn behind bars so I set

ZOrderType[COLOR=#ffffff] [/COLOR]= DrawingToolZOrder.AlwaysDrawnFirst;

inside

State.SetDefaults

but I noticed it doesn't work for all my drawing tools. So I tried this on

@Lines.cs

and indeed it doesn't work for Line, ArrowLine and Horizontal Line but it works for Ray, Extended Line and Vertical Line.

Do you know what's happening here? Thanks

Hello beobast,

Do you have a sample drawing object where you see this happening that you can attach? I tried the following and see this drawing behind the bars when I draw it. Are there other steps required to see it not drawn first?

namespace NinjaTrader.NinjaScript.DrawingTools
{
public class TestLine : Line
{
    protected override void OnStateChange()
   {
      base.OnStateChange();
      if (State == State.SetDefaults)
      {
         LineType = ChartLineType.ArrowLine;
         Name = "ElLine";
         ZOrderType= DrawingToolZOrder.AlwaysDrawnFirst;
      }
   }
}
}

marcus2300, is your problem specifically related to using AlwaysDrawnFirst in your custom drawing object? If this relates to the series and not specifically a custom drawing object using AlwaysDrawnFirst I would suggest making a new post or use the post you linked so we can assist you with that separately.


I look forward to being of further assistance.
