X Axis - Date in X Axis - Removal of AM PM granularity

right now, i have a bar graph with a date (mmmmm dd yyyy) in the x axis, going back to January 1, 2015.

 

I have a number of filters set, with relative filtering as well. when i filter the graph to only show any 2 or 3 days (since Jan 1, 2015), the x axis shows the day i chose but also 12 am 6pm 12pm, etc.

 

How can I remove this? 

Note: right now I do not have the Date Heirarchy in the x axis, simply date. I do not wish to use a date heirarchy, as right now the x axis adjusts its units (years, quarter, months, etc.) based on the whats filtered (ie. show quarters if filtering 1 year only; show months if filtering 2 quarters only)

 

thanks,

In the Format section of the Visualizations pane, expand the X axis card and change the Type option from Continuous to Categorical.

There is too much confidential information so i will share a screenshot. See the "without filtering" and "with filtering" screen shots. How do I get rid of the 12pm and 6pm on the x axis in the "with filtering" screen shot?

Again, I do not have a date heirarchy because I wish the x axis to remain responsive and as is like in the "without filtering" screenshot.
