Post From: Another Scale Option (Feature Request)

When you right-click on the scale of any of the chart regions, there are three options you can chose from: "Scale Range Automatic", "Scale Range Independent" and "Scale Range Constant Range". Would it be possible to add "Scale Range User Defined"? The reason for asking is because when volume is the indicator, there is such a large variance between the day and evening sessions that I always have to chose "Scale Settings" and then select "User Defined" to get my desired range for the evening session. I realize that this is only one additional step, but it would be nice to be able to toggle between the day and evening session volumes without having to do that extra step. This is not a major deal, but one of those "nice to have" options if ever you find the time to add it. Another option, maybe even better, might be to modify the volume indicator to allow for two sessions, one to represent the day session, and one to represent an optionally-defined evening session. Defining the specific time for this evening session within the volume indicator itself would be great. And then, if a multiplier (determined by the user) could be used to increase the visible representation of volume on the chart for the evening session, this, in essence, would visibly "normalize" volume on the charts between the two sessions. And it would eliminate the need to modify the scale on any chart region that has volume on it (i.e. it would be able to stay on "Scale Range Automatic"). I realize that volume for the evening session would not then be actual volume, but that does not matter to me. I just want to be able to see where large increases/changes in volume for both day and evening sessions occur, without having to go through any adjustments to indicators or scales to get there. Does this make sense? Thanks again for all you do to make Sierra Chart such a great program, and thank you for your consideration of this idea as well!
