Question: Is there a study or Subgraph Drawstyle which labels the Timeline axis?

Hello SierraChart Team,

I hope you can point me in the right direction.

I am using "Time Range Highlight - Transparent" Study to identify the starting candle of the Asia and NY range.
Currently, I use the Draw Style "Color Bar Candle Fill," so that I can subtly change the color of the candles to easily analyze the timing of the chart.
What I would prefer, if possible, is to have a small label or text at the bottom of the chart along the timeline axis (perhaps a diamond or triangle), which appears at each of the columns where that candle would be highlighted.

Thank you for any help,
Mike

There is not a study that will put the information along the bottom of the chart. This could be done using a custom study. Refer to the information for custom studies starting here:
Advanced Custom Study Interface and Language (ACSIL)

Here is an example of one way to do this using built-in study.
Not exactly 100% what you asked, but maybe it is useful.

Thank you very much for posting that!
I will try this out in the coming few days.
At least it gives some hints to get me closer.
Happy trading!
