Default Custom Multiple Minute/Tick Timeframes

It appears that between version 6.5 and version 7 - the ability has been lost to format a data series to change the periodicity to an arbitrary timeframe (ie. other than the pre-defined 60 minute, 30 minute, 15 minute, etc). I would like to use alternative timeframes in terms of minutes and ticks.

Perhaps, there is an alternate way of doing this in version 7 - however, the only way I know how is to go back to the definition of the chart, and redefine the initial sequence to be for appropriate period and number of periods that I would like.

Thank you for your time, and a truly great product!

Cheers!
-Edwin

Edwin, thanks for the kind words - you can now just type in the chart to change the timeframe, for example to change to a 333 Tick chart, type in the chart '333T' without the quotes of course...
