X-axis keep adding time to date

Hi

 

I hope somebody can help me. 

I have a very simple graph with date i the x-axis and the values is a sum of minutes. 

The minutes is given as numbers in data and is not calculated, but the x-axis keep adding time to the date as in the picture.

I have made sure that the date column is of type date and has the wanted format. 

If i make the graph a little smaller it removes the time but i do not want it to be so small.

Hi @Anonymous ,

 

It's hard to reproduce your scenario, can you share some sample data to us?

Select the visual and in the formatting pane, select x-axis and change the "Type" to "Categorical"

Thank you for a quick response, but I need a trend line and that is not possible when it is "Categorical".
