Hidden Price Bars by Overlays

Question - I have HTP Further Outs overlayed on LTP chart with style set as a wide bar, bar high bar low.
The problem is that prices are displayed behind the HTP Further Outs, and therefore cannot see the extreme Isolated highs/lows.
How can I plot the prices on top of the HTP Further Out overlays?

This is an issue of "layering". TS200i TS 8 do this differently; as I recall TS 8 in counterintuitive and the earliest indicator added is the topmost layer and the latest added is the deepest.

We sometimes use a simple "price bar" indicator to help in this process as it adds the price bar as an indicator which then can itself be layered.

How important is the BK-1 setting Ted on DG indicators, vs. BK=0?

The BK setting of -1 moves the whole indicator plotting one space to the right. This is necessary for the DGBL "live" indicators that plot one bar in the future, and is not used with the DGB "static" indicators that are not intended to project onto the future bar.
