Volume Profile limit profiles when On expansion is set to yes

Does anyone know if it is possible to get the Volume Profile to limit the number of profiles when On expansion is set to yes? When I am moving the chart around, if I the Time frame set to 100 bars to the right, it will keep adding bars the more I move to the right. I need it to either not expand the expansion area, or have the Volume Profile not use the entire expansion area and only be limited to whatever I set it to.

I have only been able to limit the poc, hva, lva, value area, and high/low profiles, but not the price profile. It appears that you are using the red circled curser in the image below.

Correct. I am using that. It is easier to move around the chart with that. I wish it would limit the bars to the right with that tool too.
