I would love to know if I can have Extended Rectangle appear above my studies. I have a VWAP and when I draw extending rectangles they display below the VWAP , I would like them to be the top most layer on my chart and not have to make my VWAP transparent. It works perfectly with rays and other line tools, Thank you

Disable this setting - Chart Settings: Draw Highlight Drawings Underneath Main Graph and Studies (Chart >> Chart Settings >> Chart Drawings menu)

Much appreciated, I don't want it to be on top of the main price, but on top of the VWAP but below the main price, when it's unchecked my vwap lines color get's obscured. I attached some example photos

- Behind Main graph setting enabled- the VWAP lines turn different colors based on rectangle colors

- Behind main graph setting disabled - The VWAP lines remain the correct color but now my candles change colors/ colors dulled by overlapping rectangles.

- using Horizontal Line study - This is how I want the boxes and VWAP to display, with the candles in the foreground, then the boxes then the VWAP. both the VWAP
and Candles remain uncompromised. The issue with using the study is I have to manually type in the price levels for the fill and the boundary lines + VWAP which is not ideal.

- Opaque VWAP with Behind main graph setting disabled - As you can see with the VWAP is arranged in front of the Rectangle.

What I really want is to have an opaque VWAP, with the transparent rectangles copied from my other chart overlaid, followed by the main price candles.

Thank you for your time

There is not an option to draw under the Main Price Graph, but above the studies. The Drawings are either on the very top, or on the very bottom of the drawing order (i.e. above everything, or below everything).
