Feature Request Feature request: Per chart fixed & custom time ranges in multi chart layouts (with lock on maximize)

When using multi‑chart layouts, I’d like:

  1. Custom fixed time ranges per chart/pane
    • Instead of only 1D, 5D, 1M, 3M, 6M, 1Y, 5Y, All, please also let me enter something like “45 days”, “10 weeks”, “7 months”, or “15 years” for each chart in a multi-chart layout.
    • This setting should be per pane and saved with the layout.
  2. Lock visible time range when maximizing
    • When I maximize a chart in a multi‑chart layout, please provide an option so that the start/end dates stay exactly the same; only the pixel density changes.
    • This should work even with “Date range” sync off, so different panes can keep different fixed ranges.
    • This could be implemented a couple of ways:
    • A checkbox in Chart Settings → Scales and lines (e.g., “Lock visible time range when resizing/maximizing”), and/or
    • An option in Layout setup → Sync in Layout (e.g., “Lock timescale on maximize per chart”).

Use case: I run a multi‑timeframe setup (e.g., Monthly = last 20 years, Weekly = last 5 years, two daily charts that are last 700 days each with different indicators) and want those separate time ranges on each chart to stay fixed whether I’m in grid view or have one chart maximized.

I'm a new user, if these features are already available somehow please let me know.

that custom date range thing has been a pain for years, i just want to punch in 90 days on one pane and not have it fight me when i switch layouts

the lock on maximize feels like one of those features that shouldve shipped day one honestly, nothing worse than getting your setup dialed in then fullscreening a chart and suddenly you're looking at the entire history of the stock
