Bar Chart with Error Bars

HI All,

 

I have the below column that is date (it is taken from date/time column) and it is de-compossed and compossed to get rid of the time.

I want to use it for the graph however when I add it it shows time as well?

So the big question is - how to display only dates without any time?

Hi @tomgag,

 

Are you sure you are using the correct column on your bar chart?

 

Sorry for asking this but looking at your image the format of the column is ok so if used in visual should be equal.

Yes, Just change the column name to Date1 and the axis updated as well.

Hi @tomgag,

 

Sorry for insisting on this but this is not a PBI issue, this is a formatting issue.

 

I made a small table with the same setup as yours so a date column with hours and one with your formula as you can see below even if the chart is the full page size the hours don't appear on  the chart. Top one is column with Date hour bottom one using your formula and only as date format.

No, it is Power BI issue.

 

What I mean is, I have the same graph with plenty of data (top one) and formatting work as designed. Below one is for the same data, same settings however below one is filtered to small number of values.
