COLOR_BACKGROUND_AT_PRICE problem

Hey,

DRAWSTYLE_COLOR_BACKGROUND_AT_PRICE is supposed to be filling whole width and height of given price tick. As it's called background it should be filling it fully right?

Please see attached screenshots. When I use this style I have white space between every price and tick. Standard chart settings.

But when I use DASH drawstyle with width set to 15 it plots everything fine - esspecially full width, cause obviously I set the 15 height to match vertical scale.

Could you fix that, so this drawstyle would really plot a background at price? Thanks!!

Hey could you at least confirm or deny if there's a problem with that? Thanks

OK, but why is that defined as a background at price, if it doesnt fill at least full width of a column? Dash style is able to do that so background style should do that too right?

What was your intention about this draw style if it plots rectangles not full filled background at price? Thanks

Any chance to fill whole column at price same as DASH does? Thanks
