Do Numbers Bars Have Adjustable Column Widths?

I'm new to Sierra Chart and have a question about the Numbers Bars. Here's my current chart configuration:

column #1 : total volume at price with full background based on actual volume
column #2 : "bidvol x askvol" with full background coloring based on actual horizontal delta

The width of column #2 is not needed for column #1 but I can't figure out how to adjust the column widths separately, ideally with a 'best-fit' or 'fixed pixel' approach. Is this possible?

If this is not currently implemented is there a workaround? For example, could the total volume column + coloring be coded and plotted using Windows GDI functions? How much would this impact performance? And how difficult would it be to code?

Many thanks!!

This is not possible. They are going to be fixed width based on the chart bar spacing:

In regards the programming question, we think trying to do this would be very difficult.
