Dear Support,

I am using adjusted Volume at price multiplier chart settings with the Numbers Bars study to display 'aggregated' volume. In this case there is a space between each level and when I try to compress the price scale, the numbers and the background coloring become unreadable (please see the chart below).

Is it somehow possible to extend the background coloring through all the aggregated price levels and also the displayed numbers? In my example the Volume at Price multiplier is 5 so extending the Numbers bar color through 5 price levels would be optimal.

I already tried to modify the tick size when using Numbers bars and that gives a 100% useful/clear solution but when switching between multiple symbols (for example from a quote board) the tick size should be repeatedly adjusted manually for every new charts.

The same chart when using manually multiplied tick size:

So in brief I am looking for the same display mode what can be created when using multiplied tick size with Numbers bars, but I would like to control the multiplier 'globally' using the Volume at price multiplier to be able to use the multiplier without the need to manually adjusting tick size for each newly displayed/loaded chart.

Can you please advise?

This will be improved upon in the next release.

We definitely cannot help with this. This needs to remain as it is.

I have just updated to the v1748 pre-release and it is displaying the Numbers Bars background coloring perfectly now. Thank you for the prompt improvement - I really appreciate it!
