Can I hide 1 of 2 x axis labels without changing the format?

I have this graph and dataset that I want to showcase each line of the dataset as its own bar, but I dont want the ID to be shown on the graph. All I can seem to find is changing the heirarchy, but when I do this I lose the individual bars. Is there any way to hide that layer of the labels?

I would like to keep the dates but remove the IDsI would like to keep the dates but remove the IDsThis is the dataset that I am usingThis is the dataset that I am using

Hi  @trashdid ,

 

As far as I know, Power BI doesn't support this feature at the moment, you can try to use X-axis - Concatenate labels, which will bring the X-axis levels all to a horizontal plane.

You can also submit an idea for it at Home (microsoft.com) and wait for users with the same needs as you to vote for you to help make it happen as soon as possible.

I may have found the solution!

Under Visualisations, General, Data format - Under apply settings to, select the label item you want to 'hide'. Under format options, change the format drop down to Custom. Under format code, I typed a space and my label disappeared. The other x-axis label remained unchanged. Hope this helps!

Yes, it is Possible for your scenario because to hide IDs on the X-axis , create a calculated column ID_ZWS = REPT(UNICHAR(8203), 'Table'[ID]), then sort it by the original ProjectID. Use this column on the X-axis Instead of the ID column. This keeps the axis clean and  filtering accurate.
