Is there a way to change the height or scaling of the candle overlay study to include the entire footprint bar. For example, see how on opening and closing levels the candle overlay outline cuts through the bid x ask volume. Is there a way to make sure the candle overlay includes the entirety of the footprint bar?

We are not sure what study you are using. The proper way to show a candlestick outline is to use this study Input:

I am using numbers bar for footprint and Overlay (bar) for candlestick. I prefer it this way for visualization purposes. Is there a to fix this problem?

What it is showing is correct. Those are the prices at which the open and close occur. If they were offset, then you would not be able to tell exactly what price they matched to. The only other option would be to use a narrow bar and put it between the Bid and the Ask.
