Can't control x-axis intervals?

Hi PBI community, 

 

I can't seem to manipualte the x-axis intervals on my column chart visualization. My data is non-date data (it's just a simple count), but the X axis section of the formatting pane is throwing me the option to choose either continuous or categorical. When it's on continous, I see the columns represented the way I want them, but the x-axis labels are stuck at 2-digit intervals (2,4,6, etc.) When I change it to categorical, I see all the appropriate x-axis labels, but am not able to see the entire range I want to see (i.e. I only see x-axis labels for where data exists, as opposed to seeing the whole range represented). 

 

Any help is appreciated :)

    I think I was able to find a work around by changing the x-axis type to Categorical, then sorting by #Quotes, ascending in the visualization. I can't help but feel like my queries behind the scenes are poorly structured, but this seems to be working. Thank you for your help!

    On the Axis option go to the column and select show items with no data:

      Hi MFelix ,

       

      Thanks for the quick response. It doesn't fix my issue, which is that I'm not seeing labels for items that DO have data. It's so weird! 


      Best,

        Hi askjervenboyd ,

         

        Check the size of the font for the axis and/or increase the size of the chart to see if the numbers appear.
