You need to use this Drawing tool: Chart Drawing Tools: Rectangle | Extending Rectangle | Ellipse | Triangle You may also want to make sure the following setting is unchecked: Chart Settings: Draw Highlight Drawings Underneath Main Graph and Studies (Chart >> Chart Settings >> Chart Drawings menu) Sierra Chart Support - Engineering Level Your definitive source for support.

Thanks for the reply, it looks like Rectangle cant draw over 2 charts ( main chart + indicator ) but a vertical line can |

A Rectangle certainly CAN be drawn on top of the other items in the chart. Be sure you have the item specified previously unchecked. Make sure you are unchecking the correct item, for Rectangles, Ellipses and Triangles, it is the one that states Draw Highlight Drawings Underneath Main Graph and Studies. Also, if you want the rectangle to completely block what is behind it, then you need to set the transparency for the rectangle to 0.

We think what you are asking about is that a Chart Drawing cannot span more than one Chart Region . This is correct. Other than the Vertical line tool.
