Native Option to Display Only the Current Forming Bar

Dear Sierra Chart Engineering,

I would like to request a native chart option to display only the currently forming bar, with all historical bars hidden visually.

Currently, this can only be approximated using "Color Bar Based on Alert Condition", which is not fully native and can interfere with scaling or visual consistency.

Proposed behavior:

Add a chart setting such as "Display Current Bar Only".

This would function purely as a visual filter.

Historical bars remain loaded and calculated internally.

Only the active bar is rendered.

Use case:
This would be useful for real-time execution training, footprint analysis, and studying live bar construction without historical visual anchoring.

Thank you for considering this request.

Kind regards,
Tim
