Hi @harshadrokade ,

 

Change the x-axis type under Format pane to Continuous and turn on the Gridlines. However the interval is set automatically, you cannot customize it.

Can you please show an example of what you mean by "monthly interval dates" ?

@lbendlin Hi Sir, you can refer the chart that I have posted. You can see that on the chart, I was able to show the dates on monthly intervals. You can see on X axis, after 28th Oct, we see next date as 25th Nov & then 23 Dec. So I could show dates on X axis with 28 days gap but the chart is showing all dates values on it. I want similar chart where chart plot area showing all dates values but X axis shows only monthly dates on it.
