    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!

Hi MFelix ,

 

Thanks for the suggestion. Font size is lowest at 8pt, resizing does nothing. Show items with no data is checked under the Axis field in visualizations. The data type is whole number, as well as the format. What a mystery. 


Best,

Hi askjervenboyd ,

 

What I could test on this side (letter size, Responsive, continuous/categorical, increase decrease the size of the chart) I wasn't abble to replicate your issue.

 

I'm on the August 2019 version what is your version?

 

Regards,

MFelix

    Hi MFelix,

     

    I'm on the July 2019 version. It's just the weirdest thing.

      Have you tried to redo your chart from the start?

       

      Just taking out hipothesys.

       

      As I refered in my testing that did no happen.

        Hi MFelix ,

         

        Still no luck. I recreated the report and the chart straight from the sources and made the visualization as large as I could. 

         

        The interesting thing is, if I filter the chart 1-10, each column gets an axis label. If I do anything beyond 10, it shows axis labels only in increments of 2. 

         

        Interestingly, when you try to do 1-12, the axis label for 0 also shows up. 

         

        I did manage to get it to work by changing from a continuous sort to a categorical sort where it sorts ascending by fiscal month. Very strange!
