Post From: Candlestick Fill - Transparent

I'm using charts with a black background. I would like to have a Up candlestick with a green outline/wicks and a transparent (hollow) fill and a Down candlestick with a red outline/wicks and fill. I can do most of that but can't get a transparent (hollow) background on the Up candlesticks which means the Up candlesticks don't look right on lighter chart background colours. I set the Up candlestick colour fill to the same as the chart background (black) but when the candlesticks are displayed on top of a lighter chart background colour (i use the Time Range Highlight study to display pre/post market times) it doesn't look good. Would it be possible to add a transparent option to the 'Graphic settings > Candlestick Up/Down Fill' settings so the background fill is transparent? Unless there's another way around that issue. I don't think the Hollow candlesticks option allows me to do the above. Thanks
