Number Bar Chart Question

Hi, I'm very close to getting the number bar chart to how I want it. I have column 1 working off DiagonalDominantSideAskVolBidVolPercentage and have the colouring in text mode from volume which is displaying as I like which is great. I have default text colour which is then overridden by either blue or red when either buyers or sellers are dominant and works great. There is one more thing I'd like to do and that is the ability to have the background of the cell which has the highest volume for the bar to display is a chosen colour. I know I can highlight with a cell outline but this messes up the look of the candle bar outline so I'd like to colour the background instead. The closest I can seem to get is by doing this with column 2 but it makes the chart look weird which is not what I want. So, if I could get the functionality of column 1 and colum2 into column 1 then that would be fantastic. Is there a way to do this? The attached image shows the sierra chart as close as I can get it. I'm new to Sierra Charts so I may have missed a setting that allows me to do this so any help much appreciated. Cheers John

OK we understand what you are looking for. This is not supported. Will see about adding the ability to highlight the maximum volume by drawing the entire background rather than outline.

I'm probably pushing my luck here but while the development team is at it could they add in the ability for each text field to have either normal or bold font? Thx

Attached is a chart that shows text bolded when a condition is met. Hopefully this illustrates what I mean by ability to bold the text font. Thx
