Fractional X values in a step graph possible?

[User (Legacy)]

I've got a set of data I need to chart as a step graph, but it's not on

regular intervals.  It's time based.  For example, I could have data

consisting of the following points: (9am, 45) (9:30am, 50) (10am 55) (11am

60).  Looking at the documentation, it looks like all you can do are pass

the Y values to the chart (and label the X Axes for each point).  The

problem with that is that the interval between 9 and 9:30am will be the same

length as the step interval between 10am and 11am when it should only be

half as long.

Is there any way to specify the X values on a step graph so that the chart

looks right short of creating "intermediate" intervals between the end

points of the longer runs?

You need to create an XY chart and pass the times as the X axis values. You

will also have to specify the format of the X axis so that is labeled

properly.

There is sample in both our support site and the Resource Center

(Samples/AxisHandling/XAxis/Date Values) that will show you what to do if

you are using DataBinding. There is also a sample in our support site

(Samples/Miscellaneous/Time in X Axis) that passes the data manually.
