ACSIL Chart drawings not visible - What am I doing wrong?

I am attempting to plot a marker on a reference chart and the drawings are being registered in the "Manage Chart Drawings Window" but don't appear visible in my chart. Below is the code I am using and an attachment showing the chart drawings that are registered: // Only trigger on first bar of the session. if (firstBarOfSession) { // Register the Tool object. s_UseTool Tool; // This is the referenced chart number. refChartIndex = sc.GetPersistentInt(1); refMarker = sc.GetPersistentInt(7); sc.SetPersistentInt(7, 8579274); // Get the trading date we are working with. SCDateTime prevDaySessionEnd = sc.GetTradingDayDate(sc.BaseDateTimeIn[sc.Index - 1]); // Get the open time for the prev day. SCDateTime prevDaySessionStart = sc.GetTradingDayStartDateTimeOfBar(prevDaySessionEnd); // Define the subgraphs we will be working with. SCGraphData refChartGraphData; // Get the base data for the reference chart. sc.GetChartBaseData(refChartIndex, refChartGraphData); // Define the Time Bar Arrays we require. SCDateTimeArray refChartDateArray; // Build the DateTime arrays we need. sc.GetChartDateTimeArray(refChartIndex, refChartDateArray); // If the GraphData Array is empty return. if (refChartGraphData[SC_LAST].GetArraySize() > 0) { // Define the first and last bars of the session for the reference chart. refChartEndBar = sc.GetNearestMatchForDateTimeIndex(refChartIndex, sc.Index - 1); refChartStartBar = sc.GetNearestMatchForSCDateTime(refChartIndex, prevDaySessionStart); // Loop through the bars to generate values we need. for (int Index = refChartStartBar; Index <= refChartEndBar; Index++) { // Another condition here prevents every bar from being added but removed for code sample. // Clear the Tool. Tool.Clear(); // Define the Tool settings. Tool.ChartNumber = refChartIndex; // AddUserDrawnDrawing to allow drawings to appear on referenced charts. Tool.AddAsUserDrawnDrawing = 1; Tool.DrawingType = DRAWING_MARKER; Tool.MarkerType = MARKER_X; Tool.MarkerSize = 8; Tool.LineWidth = 5; // Add a new drawing to the existing line number. Tool.AddMethod = UTAM_ADD_ALWAYS; // Set the start DateTime of the drawing. Tool.BeginIndex = Index; Tool.EndIndex = Index; Tool.BeginValue = refChartGraphData[SC_HIGH][Index]; Tool.EndValue = refChartGraphData[SC_HIGH][Index]; Tool.Region = 1; Tool.Color = RGB(255, 0, 255); // Set the Tool line number to be persistent. Tool.LineNumber = refMarker; // Add the marker to the chart. sc.UseTool(Tool); } } } Can someone please let me know where I am going wrong? I suspect a default setting is missing or something but haven't been able to figure out what. |

It turned out to be the region set incorrectly. Changed to Tool.Region = 0 and the markers appear as expected.
