Managing intervals on X axis

[harshadrokade]

I have data with some numbers against dates starting from 01-Jan-2020 to 28-Oct-2020. I plotted this data on Area chart with dates on X axis & number on Y axis. 

The dates coming on X axis are coming individualy as a seperate date. I want to show all the dates numbers on the chart but on X Axis I want to show the dates with month intervals like  01-Jan-2020,  01-Feb-2020,  01-Mar-2020.

How can I manage X axis label shown with a month gap interval.

I don't know of a way to force it to display all the months.  It looks like it will only show a maximum of 8 labels and when you are showing a larger date range it shows fewer labels and starts to hide every other month.  The dynamic nature of the axis labels stops you from forcing it to always show each month.

You would need to add the month value to your date table as a new column then use that column as your x axis.

Hi @jdbuchanan71 

That will not work as then it will not show me the daily chart area. I want to see all dates data on chart but on X axis, I want monthly intervals shown. Refer the chart created in excel as below where you can see chart showing all dates values but X axis shows labels as monthly dates

If you change the X axis type to be continuous instead of categorical it should group them together.

@jdbuchanan71 Thanks Sir. I want the dates on X Axis with monthly intervals. Categorial option provides dates on X Axis but the interval provided is daily. I want to manage this interval to months. So dates on X Axis should be like 01/Oct/2020, 01/Nov/2020, 01/Dec/2020 and so on..
