Applying a study to Time and Sales

When Time and Sales Volume plots, a new bar is created for each new value received.
When another study is applied to the Time and Sales Volume study, the resulting value is plotted as a bar according to the Chart Setting ie each (second/minute/trade/range/etc).

Is there a way to apply a study to a TnS study and have a bar plotted for each value of the TnS study?

Yes. Use the Based On setting to base a study on another study (the Time and Sales study):

My post title was misleading.
Say:
A chart is set to 1 sec bars from Chart Settings.
A Time and Sales Volume study applied to the chart may plot 4 bars [for 4 trades] during a single 1 sec bar of the main study [a new bar is created for each new value received by the TnS study]
If I apply another study to the Time and Sales Volume study [using Based On] the result now plots at the same rate as the main chart, a rate of 1 bar per second.
Is there a way to apply a study to a TnS study and have a bar plotted for each value of the original TnS study?
