Post From: Rendering Issue with Time Range Highlight (Study/Price Overlay) on TPO chart

I have a TPO chart on which I want to highlight the ETH session to visually separate it from the RTH session. The desired result is shown on Screenshot 1.

I did this by creating another chart with a Time Range Highlight study (which highlights the time period 18:00 - 09:29:59), and using the Study/Price Overlay study to get this study onto my TPO chart.
The result almost works perfectly but there is one minor issue with it:

Screenshot 2: When I open the TPO chart after 09:30, everything looks fine and as expected (I used orange in this example for better visibility): The highlighted area correctly stops on the last ETH column and before the RTH opens with column A.

Screenshot 3: When I open the TPO chart at any time before 09:30, and then simply keep it open when the market opens at 09:30, the previous days are still correct (i.e., highlighted area stops before RTH open on these days), but the current day is not rendered correctly: the highlighted area for the current session does not stop before RTH open but rather continues indefinitely and eventually covers the whole day (ETH + RTH).

I can fix this "rendering issue" seen in Screenshot 3 by temporarily hiding the Study/Price Overlay study and then showing it again. This "refresh" will redraw the zone correctly, and afterwards it looks as shown in Screenshot 2.

However, this only seems to be a workaround to me, and it's honestly a little annoying having to do this every single day after RTH opens to fix my TPO chart.

Maybe I miss something here, but I can't explain this strange behavior. Any help with this issue would greatly be appreciated.
