Is there a way I can change to labels of a chart (stacked area) to be more granular? I have a chart that has a rolling 24 hour dataset which is in 5 minute intervals. If I set the x axis as categorical it shows every entry label which is way too much, where as if I set it to continuous it only shows a few labels ie 21:00 then 03:00 the 09:00 then 15:00. I would like it to show each hour ideally.
Currently, there's no setting to fix the interval on chart X axis. You may vote these ideas:
For "continuous", when you increase the width of your chart, the granularity on X axis can be lower.
For "categorical", you may adjust the "Minumum category width".
