Who can help tell why the code can't show "rectangle"?

New comment
 

With the code below, I want to show a rectangle frame around the latest 3 bars.  

Who can help tell why the code can't show the "rectangle frame"?  I couldn't find the root cause.

Also attached the print log below for reference.  Maybe you can copy the code below as an indicator for try too.

OBJ_RECTANGLE is anchored by time and price, not pixels
 

Thanks. But how to change the rectangle size? How to change it to a frame instead of solid filling? 

 
Besides, how to create a line segment as object?
 
Besides, how to skip weekend with code if counting bars for the object of "rectangle"?
 

First decide what you want to draw

if OBJ_RECTANGLE 

change size by moving the anchor points

If set as background is true, it will show as a frame. If false, it will have a solid fill

I sometimes use 4 trend lines instead of a rectangle

Thank you very much! Realized! 

 
Don't you need to use RECTANGLE_LABEL instead ?
