Helper INeed help with line chart x-axis
Line chart x-axis is skipping the values,
ie, missing december , feb etc..Can some one please help.
1. You can add the calculated column = month(table(date))
Then put it to the x-axis and set the type as continuous.
2. You can create a calendar table and manage the relationship with fact table, then use the date as xaxis

parvathisuku_90 , When axis type is continuous, line visual skips months. The other option is categorical

parvathisuku_90 You need to change from Continuous to Categorical in your x-axis.
parvathisuku_90If I change x-axis to categorical then it is showing every date. But I need not show only months.

Hi parvathisuku_90 - that is the known and expected behavior of the X axis on line charts. You may want to consider removing gridlines from the X-axis, if the "missing" months are going to be too distracting to your users.

Hi parvathisuku_90 -
This behavior is because your X-axis is set to "Continuous", not "Categorical". You can switch it to categorical, but then every date entry gets its own spot on the axis and it may introduce a scroll bar as the data extends out to the right.
Hope this helps
David
