Hello Sierra,
I am trying to use an intraday chart with User Defined settings as constant range settings allow the chart to move as price moves. User Defined does not. The issue is I can not scale out the chart so that it is big enough to see the bars. Is there a way to use User defined settings and scale out the chart or zoom out the chart to make it bigger. I tried with the various ways on the right margin such at Interactive scale etc. Thank your for your response.

You can definitely adjust the Vertical scale while it is set to Constant Range (unless you are in a Logarithmic scale). As you mentioned, you would want the scale to be in Interactive Scale Range mode and then just right-click on the price ladder and move it up or down to expand or contract the scale. Refer to the following:

Is there a way to keep the chart from moving when using Constant Range Scale?

You would need to use User Defined to not have the chart move with the bars. Refer to the following:
