Global Graphics Settings ignored by TPO and Numbers Bars

When I try to change the font of the text in my charts and/or the color of the chart background, the changes will show in all of my charts EXCEPT for charts using the TPO or Numbers Bars studies. I have seen (for example) charts from other users using numbers bars or TPO that have a different chart background color for example, but I can't get it to work for me. Also, I've looked through the Volume Profile settings but I can't figure out how to create a volume profile that shows a new volume profile every thirty minutes and just one profile at a time that I can display along with a normal daily volume profile on my Trade DOM.

This is because you have set those charts to use their own Graphics Settings rather than the global graphics settings. Refer to:

Also, I've looked through the Volume Profile settings but I can't figure out how to create a volume profile that shows a new volume profile every thirty minutes and just one profile at a time that I can display along with a normal daily volume profile on my Trade DOM.

You need to add another Volume by Price study to the chart or Trade DOM and you need to set this Volume by Price study input:

to
One Period from Most Recent Period Start to End: This defines one Volume Profile which starts at the beginning of the most recent period defined by the Time Period Type for 'Fixed Time' and Time Period Length for 'Fixed Time' inputs, and goes to the last chart bar.
