Time picker business hours

Hi,

There is any option to restrict a range of hours in the time picker?

I want to select a value in the time picker (Month to date, week to date...) and only show the results between two hours of every day. I want to see only the results of the business hours.

Is posible to do this by modify a config file like "times.conf"? Is posible modify a file in disk to change a search filter of a existing panel?

Thank you.

Not via the time range picker / times.conf, no. You can restrict hours of the day in your search string though, either via the date_hour field if you have that for all of your data, or by creating your own calculated field for the hour of the day and filtering by that.
