Hi @mohammadrafic ,

 

Change the X axis type from Categorical to Continuous if your x axis column is date or date/time type.

Doesn't "mmm yyyy" meet your requirements?

@mohammadrafic , You need to give more space to visual. Or restrict values.

 

Other options are , Do some changes  in under x-axis

1. Inner Padding 

2. Max Category Width

3. MAx Size

there is no option as you mentioned because date data type is converted to text.

 
Month = FORMAT('ESP Request'[REQUEST_START],"MMM-yy")
