[Programming Help] - Issue with custom drawing

Hello,

I’m trying to create a custom drawing using ACSIL that stays fixed on the far right of the chart (in the fill space) and stretches fully over the visible price region. Simular to built-in Volume Profile indicator

I’ve tried using negative BeginDateTime/EndDateTime values, which anchors the drawing in time, but I’m struggling to make it span the entire visible price scale regardless of zoom or scroll.

Can you advise:

How to make a drawing fixed to the fill space (time) and fully fill the visible price region?

Is there a way to ensure it always appears aligned on the far right and doesn’t move with bars?

Thanks!

Using Drawing Tools From an Advanced Custom Study: s_UseTool::BeginDateTime

To use a value relative to the left side of the chart for BeginDateTime rather than an absolute Date Time value, specify an integer value from 1 to 150. Where 1 represents the left side of the chart window and where 150 represents the right side of the chart window, not including the Values Scale on the right side of the chart.
