Line chart Grid on X-Axis when field is Text type

In a Line chart, is it possible to drax grid on X-Axis when field is Text type? The Option is not present under X-Axis on the format menù.

 

I'm working with Power BI Desktop Version 2.73.5586.561 64-bit.

No it's not. The X axis of a line chart has to be a data type that can be aggregated.
