Power BI Timeline X axis Amendment

Hi,

I have successfully built a timeline on the Power BI tool. May data X axis goes from March next year (2021) till December 2022. The x axis displays the month name only. How can i make the axis display March 2021, April 2021, May 2021 etc.

 

I have tried to format my dates in transform data, but this does not work.

      Hi,

      This is what i tried to do before (creating a month year column and then a month year sorter column).

      When i put the month year column in the timeline power bi tool, it showed no data.

       

      any solution?
