Thank you for checking, The problem does not happen in PBIX file. It only happens in the online version. If you could create a simple chart with continuous date, add a measure y-axis, and finally, use a categorical column in the legends. Then continues X-axis will change to categorical.

Hi @Anonymous ,

I cannot reproduced the issue. Could you please check if you change the x axis type?
