DRAWRECTANGLE in the middle of a barindex

  Hi all,

  I’m trying to build an indicator but I’m not sure it is possible to draw a rectangle in the middle of barindex ?
  I mean when I’m using the DRAWRECTANGLE it actually display the rectangle at the beginning of the barindex so it’s kind of “offset”. Whereas when I use the chart configurator I manage to get the black rectangle in the middle of the barindex (C.f. Screenshot)
  Also is it possible to get a specific color between the two red and green lines in the code directly ? Or is it only possible in the chart configuration ?

  Many thanks !

  Kaci.

  As you can see from the attached pics you can draw rectangles in 3 ways:

  DrawRectangle #1

  defparam drawonlastbaronly = true //#1 it will only show on the current bar, so it's almost invisible (you can only change the bordercolor) drawrectangle(barindex,low,barindex,high) RETURN

  1 2 3

  defparam drawonlastbaronly = true            //#1 it will only show on the current bar, so it's almost invisible (you can only change the bordercolor) drawrectangle(barindex,low,barindex,high) RETURN

  DrawRectangle #2

  defparam drawonlastbaronly = true //#2 you can start from a previous bar drawrectangle(barindex-1,low,barindex,high) RETURN

  1 2 3

  defparam drawonlastbaronly = true            //#2 you can start from a previous bar drawrectangle(barindex-1,low,barindex,high) RETURN

  DrawRectangle #3 (v11.x ONLY)

  defparam drawonlastbaronly = true //#3 you can also end on a future bar and change both border and inside colours (v11.x ONLY) drawrectangle(barindex-1,low,barindex+1,high) coloured (0,255,0,32) bordercolor(0,0,255,255) RETURN

  1 2 3

  defparam drawonlastbaronly = true            //#3 you can also end on a future bar and change both border and inside colours                       (v11.x ONLY) drawrectangle(barindex-1,low,barindex+1,high) coloured (0,255,0,32) bordercolor(0,0,255,255) RETURN
