View Count: 1100

I am using the Color Bar Based on Above/Below Study with a DT Oscillator. When the DT value is zero, the color bar does not print for that bar.
I have adjusted the scale from 0 to 100 to be -10.0 to 110, to see if that would allow it to be visible, but it still does not show.
Inputs for DT Osc are 8,simple,8,5,simple,3,exp

Use the Color Bar Based on Alert Condition study instead:

I do not have an alert, but do understand it would be fairly easy to add one and then use this indicator. But then that is one more thing I need to keep track of, unnecessarily. The only condition the Above/Below seems to produce the error on, is when the value is Zero. This seems like a bug to me. I wish you would look into fixing it, even if it is not the highest priority. I did look at the source for the indicator, and it does not appear to have a flaw. I have not run it with a debugger yet.

If you understand how to work with source code and understand debugging, then just modify the study to meet your requirements:

http://www.sierrachart.com/index.php?page=doc/BuildCustomStudiesDLL.html

We will not be making any modifications ourselves.

We do not even know specifically what you are doing and this is not regarded as a bug. There is nothing for us to fix. Place no reliance on us whatsoever to help you with this.

That study was not really meant to be used with studies which are outside of Chart Region 1 and use different values than the main price graph.
