Post From: How to view tick-based candles in a time-based chart?

I've tried but have been unsuccessful in enabling this with and without the following extra settings in various combinations:
[Chart >> Chart Settings >> Bar Period >> INCLUDE COLUMNS WITH NO DATA],
[Chart >> Chart Settings >> Chart Data >> ALLOW ZERO VALUES],
[Chart >> Chart Settings >> Chart Data >> LOAD EMPTY BARS FOR DATE RANGE].


I did manage to get some tick bars to disappear with [Chart >> Chart Settings >> Data Limiting >> EXCLUDE <= 1], but they were not spaced out like how I hoped.
Unfortunately it seems that tick charts cannot make use of this setting, per your documentation for:
"Include Columns With No Data (Chart >> Chart Settings >> Bar Period menu)" which states that:
"This option is ignored on Number of Trades, Volume, Range, Reversal, Renko, Delta Volume, Price Change, Point and Figure Bars Bar Period Types."

I've also tried using the "Overlay (Bar)" and "Overlay (Non-Sync)" studies in various tick/time chart combinations but haven't had any luck in achieving candle spacing. Is there any other workaround?
