Hi all,
How can I obtain a graph with a date (time scale) based horizontal axis with proper dates/ time interval instead of regular interval?
I tried with scatter plot, which seems to allow horizontal axis with irregular interval but dont' recognize date format / type in axis option.
And I tried with line plot, which recognize dates but keep a regular interval between them not taking into account if 1 day or 1 year separate 2 dates.
There is this super nice description (copied below) in Excel help but I cannot find how to use/ activate that and this has been driving me crazy !!!
"When you create a chart from worksheet data that uses dates, and the dates are plotted along the horizontal (category) axis in the chart, Excel automatically changes the category axis to a date (time-scale) axis. You can also manually change a category axis to a date axis.
A date axis displays dates in chronological order at specific intervals or base units, such as the number of days, months, or years, even if the dates on the worksheet are not in sequential order or in the same base units."
Huge thanks in advance for any tips or help on the matter.
Kind regards
Caro
