I'm using the time duration study on my footprint charts

As you can see in the attached screenshot, the study currently displays the duration in the HH:MM:SS format.

Is there a way to customize the time format to show only MM:SS?

There is not a built-in way to change the way the time is displayed.

Depending on the study you are using, if it is available in the ACS_Source folder under your main Sierra Chart installation folder, then you could modify the source code to only display what you want. Refer to the following:
