User defined scale for bar time duration study

Hello,
I use volume candlesticks on my primary chart and want to have a bar time duration study in a region below it to visually help me quickly gage the momentum of price action. Unfortunately, frequently there are extended periods of time that have low volume, making some bars very tall and scrunching the more interesting intervals. I tried to set a custom scale with manual top and bottom limits to focus on my preferred timeframe but it didn't have the desired effect. The scale seemed to be messed up. I'm not sure if I'm not understanding something or if this feature is missing for this type of study. I'd appreciate your help.

Best regards,
Marcin

This should be possible, but we have not tested it.

To determine the upper lower Scale values, you need to understand that one second has a value of 1/86400.0.
