How to remove time from visualization

How do I remove the time from a visualization?  The data is formated as a date in the format M/d/yyyy.  If I change the X axis from Continuous to Categorical it fixes the issue, but it also elminates the days with no data.  We want to be able to see days with no data as we want to see trending data over time, not just data on those dates it has it.

@Anonymous ,

 

Currently in the date hierarchy there's no "time" level, so I'm afraid we can't show aggregation value based on time, we can only aggregate value based on day.

However, as a workaround, you can convert the date column to text type, in this way, each time in a day can be shown on the X-axis of a bar chart.
