Remove dates with no data

There are times when I am creating a report and there will be long times between date 1 and date 2. I would like to be able to not show those dates. I wuold like to keep the columns next to each other to more easily show the trend without the blank spaces. Any help would be appreciated.

Hi @Anonymous

On the X-axis select the option categorical, or select the field on the visual (arrow on the rigtg side of the text) were you choose the summarization type and select the option to hide values without data.

Forgive my being new to power bi, but I cannot find the "Categorical" option you mentioned

Hi @Anonymous,

 

What is your x-axis data type, month, full date?

i am also facing same problem and my x-axis is month

Hi @ThinkerNaveen ,

 

Is the month in number format? If yes you need to change it to categorical to remove the blanks:
