Post From: How get High-High for Daytime when Start/End are 0:00-23:59

Those instructions seem to provide for putting Evening OHLC lines on a Day session.
I need the opposite, Day session OHLC lines on Day session, and need to see the full 23+hrs in one chart.

To use day session OHLC that way (as you indicate) requires setting Start-Stop time to Day session, and setting evening session different, right?

"Use Day Session Only: When this Input is set to Yes, and you have defined and enabled both the standard and evening Session Times in Chart >> Chart Settings, then the Open, High, Low, Close lines will be based upon the Day Session only as specified by the Start Time and the End Time Session Times. Refer to Session Times for more information."

The word "standard" there means "day" session, right?
Both sessions will show-chart the same as when both are set full 23+hrs?
Apparently not, or there would be no need for Fast Switch view from Day to Full session:
Chart Session Times: Quick Switching between the Full Session and Day Session

I've always had both just set to full day to always be able to see the full 23+ hrs (maybe was default).
Also, the VolumebyPrice reflects the whole day.

EDITED: I tried 2 sessions, evening & day, not over-lapping.
Settings: use Intraday chart=yes, Ref Days back=0, #days to calc=1 Use Day Session Only-Yes

It did not work right. It shows OHLC from the beginning of the evening SP session: 17:00:00.
I need from 8:30:00 of today day session.

My suggestion of overlaying from a strictly day session chart worked right when I tested that chart with day session only.
My problem is solved. If you know what I did wrong the other way, please indicate.
