I understand the logic of you're saying, but I'll try to formulate my query in another way. On the chart I have a series of indicators that I draw on the background while the candles are on the foreground. If I say the indicators are on level 3 and the candles on level 2 is it possible to draw only one indicator on level 1? Does a levels structure exist in mql5 like for example in photoshop?
No.

Hi, Alain. It's an old post but I discovered a very interesting thing about the drawing order in the terminal and I'd like to share it. This is the story. I had a button with the name "scale" and a series of graphic lines named "stems".
Both the objects had the ObjectSetInteger(0,"name",OBJPROP_BACK,false); command because I wanted them on top of other graphics in the background but I also wanted the "scale" button on top of the "stems" lines and that
apparently wasn't possible. Then I had the idea to modify the button name into "A-scale" and it came on top of the "stems" lines. So, I didn't try further because I had my result but apparently, you can have innumerous layouts
order just applying the alphabet order to the objects names. That's fantastic! Following that logic A should be on top of B but AA should be on top of AB and so on although I've not tried that extensively.
No. Your"A-scale" was on the top because it was redrawn. The last drawn object is always on top, the name is irrelevant.
Anyway, the topic question is about indicators, not objects.
Please don't delete posts or their content. It breaks the narrative of the thread.
Instead, edit it and strike out your comment for example, and add an explanation.

Hi guys, could someone please suggest a command to draw an indicator in foreground?
I tried ObjectSetInteger(0,"My-indicator",OBJPROP_BACK,false);
but the line is still projected under the candles.
