How to draw continuous lines with null data?

I have 5 datasets to recored the temperature and humidity at 5 different locations, and each location record it once an hour but different timing. e.g. Site-A records it at every quarter to the hour, Site-B records it at half past every hour. I appended those into 1 query. and draw the line chart and got following. Up to 15:00, there are only outside temperature so I see the line, but after that no lines show up and only dots. But I like each dataset continues smoothly, and like to see only lines in different colors to compare those. 

 

Could someone help solve this?

Jun

Hi @Anonymous ,

 

I did the following test and I can't seem to reproduce your problem. Is it possible to provide a test data model (with sensitive information removed) and I will answer you as soon as possible.

Dear amitchandak,

 

Thanks for your response! My data is not a text, it's a Date/Time. So it's strange. If I remove the time from X axis or show only 1 site data,  it shows only line. 

a) no time in X axis

b) only Site-C temperature
