When I draw a line (or a marker) on region 0 where the candlestick chart is resided, the drawings got drawn underneath the candlesticks, and hence not visible. How to make my drawings topmost, on top of everything (candlesticks, lines and others) so the drawings are visible.

The following code is what I have, I don't know if I had missed some settings. Please advise. Thanks.

  s_UseTool Tool;
  Tool.ChartNumber = sc.ChartNumber;
  Tool.DrawingType = DRAWING_MARKER;
  Tool.MarkerType = MARKER_X;
  Tool.MarkerSize = 4;
  Tool.LineWidth = 2;
  Tool.AddMethod = UTAM_ADD_ALWAYS;
  Tool.Region = 0;
  Tool.BeginDateTime = DateTime;
  Tool.BeginValue = Value;
  Tool.Color = RGB(255, 0, 0);
  sc.UseTool(Tool); // Here we make the function call to add the marker
