Post From: Missing Bar Width Settings – Cannot Widen Numbers Bars (Footprint) in Version 2811

Hello Sierra Chart Support,

I need help with a chart scaling issue.

I am using Sierra Chart Version *2811* (clean installation, Windows 11).
I want to increase the horizontal width of Numbers Bars (Footprint), but
the usual settings are missing.

These settings do NOT appear anywhere in my Chart Settings:
-*Use Fixed Bar Width*
-*Fixed Bar Width (in Pixels)*
-*Automatic Bar Spacing*
-*Number of Bars In View*
-*Use Even Spacing*

I checked the following menus:
*Chart → Chart Settings → Bar Period*,
*Chart Settings → Display*,
*Chart Settings → Scale*,
*Global Settings → Graphics Settings*
but the options are simply not present at all.

I attached photos showing the missing settings. **No Attachments were provided in this case**

Could you please tell me:

1.Why these spacing/width settings are missing in version 2811?
2.How can I enable or display them?
3.Is this a known issue in this version?
4. Do I need to downgrade to a previous version to use Fixed Bar Width?

Thank you in advance.
