Sorting datetime issue

Hi, 

I have a column with datetime info like this "13.10.2015 8:22"

I make date based chart, on x axe i have full datetime values "13.10.2015 8:22". When I am trying to sort by date date disappeared and on x axe i have only time value, but I need full datetime values.

Hi there. Power BI charts automatically label axes with the most compact labels, and if all your date/times are on the same day we won't show the redundant date information. We don't give you control over this at the moment but if it's important for you please make a suggestion at http://ideas.powerbi.com
