[Programming Help] - X-Axis Scale Difference Between Two Identical Renko Charts

View Count: 120

Hello, I have two charts with the exact same symbol and chart settings (Flex Renko 24-14-10), but they appear visually different on the screen. One chart appears more "compressed" along the X-axis, while the other is more "stretched," even though the same date range and data are shown. I’ve verified that the chart settings, bar period, and studies are the same. However, the bar spacing and visible time range appear inconsistent. Could you please help me understand why this is happening and how I can make the charts display identically in terms of horizontal (X-axis) scale and time range? Thank you!

The Bar Spacing between the two charts is different. You can use the linking option for "Bar Spacing" to have the two charts align. Refer to the following: Chart Settings: Chart Linking >> Bar Spacing (Chart >> Chart Settings >> Linking menu) For the most reliable, advanced, and zero cost futures order routing, use the Teton service: Sierra Chart Teton Futures Order Routing

What if I'm using 2 different chartbooks for those charts? Is there any way to adjust this spacing manually on the second chart?

You can adjust the spacing individually, and you would want to get the number in the lower right corner to be the same for both charts. But if these are on different monitors with different resolutions, then this could be a difficult thing to do.

Yes, I am using 2 different monitors ( with different chartbooks ). Basically I have 2 similar charts on each with identical details, but I noticed that on my main monitor which has a different resolution it is possible to see the full chart, while my second monitor has lower resolution and the same chart there in not being shown the same way ( it has 1 part of the chart hiding and the candles are more bold kinda and use more space in comparison to the main screen ). Is there any way to make them look the same? If yes how? My main monitor is 2560'1440 ( candles are smaller ), but second monitor has 1920'1080 ).

There is not a way to make them look exactly the same. The fact that the monitors are different resolutions will make this difficult. You just have to do the best you can to get them to look how you want them to on each monitor.
