Hello, the lock fill space isn't staying locked at fixed width when chart is zoomed which defeat the purpose. So during the day when I zoom / unzoom chart in the heat of trading, the lock space becomes huge and takes half of the screen. I unlock it, so I can push the chart to the right but it's behaving improperly: the chart can't scroll past the lock fill area if it's not scrolled to latest data so the symbol in bottom right is green. If not green, unlocked and you scroll, the empty area on the right remains and chart disappear into it. Very confusing. Point is: lock space must remain fixed size in pixels please. On the image you can see how the lock fill space, set to 20 pixels width approximately initially, becomes HUGE when I zoom the chart. VERY annoying. Date Time Of Last Edit: 2020-03-19 11:01:34

It simply does not work that way. It is based upon a number of bars.

Ok I see, but I don't see how this can be more useful than fixed. Could there be an option to keep to have it based on fixed pix width? |

There are far too many complications for it to be based upon a pixel width. In regards to your other point, we can add an option to allow the fill space to be reduced at any scroll position on the chart.

SC Team - Wanted to know if it is possible to have the right fill space to be in terms of % of width of the chart? Say - 50% of total width of the chart to be reserved for right fill space. Have been running to numerous issues with the number of bars for the right fill space. As you have mentioned there are issues with the pixels, wondering if % of chart width can be used to reserve. Please consider implementing this as an option if possible. This would be very useful for many users. Thanks |
