Dear Support,
Is there a way I can view the range High-Low of the current selected bar?
Chart values along with the cursor provide the OHLC price etc. but I'd really like to short cut the range calculation for the specific bar.
Many thanks.

Yes you need to add the Bar Difference study:

Then you can use the Chart Values tool to view the values:

Thank you for such a speedy response.
Is there a way this value can be obtained that allows for the Bar Difference study to be hidden as it is preventing me from removing the area below my other indicators.
I have a white space I cannot seem to be able to remove. I've dragged the Bar Diff scale down but a white area still remains?
Many thanks.

You can reduce the height of the Chart Region it is displayed in. Here are instructions:

If you still need help we need to see an image of the chart.

Provide an image of the chart, by following these instructions:

Maybe there is a way to set the indicator scale to 0 so it takes up no space on its vertical axis, or even combine all hidden studies in the same region with the region axis set as zero? I seem to be okay with 3-4 indicators hidden on other charts but as soon as I use the Bar Diff in the bottom region, I get this white space I cannot lose. I hope this helps.
Many thanks.

You can hide the study but then you will not see its values in the Chart Values window.

Okay I think I need a bespoke Bar Diff as it seems takes up screen resource even when the region is dragged down. I'll try and find the code and have a look at it.
Many thanks for help though.

Do you know which document the code is in?

Set the Subgraph Draw Style for the study to Ignore:
