Is it possible to overlay the actual zig-zag line (usually ID#.SG1) from a longer timeframe chart onto a lower timeframe chart with same symbol? Example: ZZ line from a 15 min. chart onto a 5 min. chart, etc.?? If so, also possible "vice versa"??

Yes, you can do the overlay, but when going from a lower time frame to a higher one, you will lose any "turns" that occurred within the time frame of the higher time frame bars. In other words, if you were overlaying from a 5 minute to a 15 minute chart, any "turn" that occurred in a time period of less than 15 minutes will not show on the 15 minute chart.

Thanks, John. Got it on, but having to play around with the Inputs of both Source chart and Destination chart to make a straight, zig-zag line. I think I got it.
