Control session start and end times programatically?

The sc.SessionStartTime() function gets the start of the day in Intraday charts which is based on the Session Times set in Chart >> Chart Settings .

I'd like to be able to change the start and end time of a chart from within a study. Is this currently possible?

(Potential use case: hard coding the regular session times for each symbol into a study, using a substring comparison to match symbol root, therefore being able to cycle through a regular session only chart for symbols with varying regular sessions. Additionally, to use sc.IsDateTimeInDaySession() to show regular session only during regular session, and out of hours data when out of hours).

SC Team - Picking up an old thread as trying to define the start time for the chart through ACSIL and the release notes are not available for this.

Wondering - Which function is used for this and the syntax to use it?

Edit - Never mind - Usage: sc.StartTime1 = 600;

Thanks
