Add lines to X axis to make it more readable

Currently the x axis is crowded because it has a label for each month/day.  Can I create an X axis like this:

Hi @bschre ,

 

I have created following chart by having Month-Year on my x-axis:

Yes you can do this by following these steps:

  • Click on your line chart --> under formatting options --> x-axis --> Switch off Concatenate lables as shown:Pragati11_0-1644253971350.png

     

  • Second thing. under formatting options --> x-axis -->Switch on Gridlines property as shown: Pragati11_1-1644254076831.png

     

The final chart you get as followwing with Days for every month shown as a split on x-axis:

Hope this helps.
