Hello network.
I have a question and I am a bit stuck in trying to solve it, which is why I resort to your valuable contributions.
I have the Date records in Text format (mm/dd/yyyy) and I have duplicated the same field to have it in Date format (mm/dd/yyyy), now I have a Bar Chart where I have the visualization using the Date field with the format Text looks like this:
Now, the requirement is to use in the same Chart the Date field with Date format and show only the Month and the Day (in either of these 2 formats: mm/dd or month/dd)
Could you please help me find the solution?
Thanks a lot in advance!

Hi @Anonymous ,
Here I suggest you to try custom format on that date type column in Model View.
