VbP - side by side profiles

Love the option to put two profiles side by side.

I have one for the full session and another only showing the last bar.
As you can see on the attached image, they do follow on top of each other for the first few bars of the day.

By changing the bar width percentage we can improve the view but after a while, the profile becomes too big for the window size and the profile starts to fall on top of the price bars forcing us to readjust the volume bars width.

Is there a way to lock the size of the profile bar width?
For instance, we could choose 50% and that size would be fixed. The size of the volume bars would follow inside that 50%, independently of increase or decrease the bar price spacing.

Looking at the second attached image, the right profile has a size of 50% and has you can see, 3 minutes have passed since the start of that bar and the profile is perfectly visible.
During the period of that bar all volume bars will follow inside that 50%. You can increase or decrease bar spacing that the size will be constant.

I believe this improves the visual aspect of the profiles and above all, their reading since from the first second, the profile becomes visible.

Regards.

In the settings for Volume by Price, you need to set Maximum Volume Bar width Type to Window Width.

trademechanics, how did you manage to display volume numbers in "K" format instead of ",000" ?
And another question is how you highlighted POC with red border only (not the entire bar)?

moskva,

That is from another platform I use, not Sierra.

Oh, thank you, trademechanics, now I can sleep calmly in the night.
