Tick Spacing On X-Axis (Time) Obscuring Graph.

[cadcoke5]

I am having problems controlling tick spacing.  The bottom axis is time. I should note that this particular graph is a copy of an existing graph on the page.   I wanted this copy to show a 1-hour range vs.the original one, which only showed 1-minute.

 

I successfully changed the time range on the copy.  But, it is an unacceptable display as it is now, since the tick marks are so dense, they obscure the graph.  I saw a post on the forum from 2009, that indicated that if the X-axis is set to Date+Time, you cannot control the tick lines.  Hoping that the 2009 limitation had been fixed sometime over the past 5-years,  I took it off of "auto range".  But, nothing I type for grid spacing seems to have any effect. 

 

Attached is a screen grab illustrating the problem. Thank you for any advice,

Are you talking about the red vertical lines?  Those aren't the ticks.  Those are axis annotations, which is something you added.  They were probably spread out when zoomed to 1 minute, but now look really dense at 1 hour.  Go to the axis annotation tab and remove anything there.

Thank you for remembering that you suggested those annotation marks to put tick marks at the 1-second lines.  I had forgotten about that.  The automatic tick-marks on my 1-hour graph are actually reasonable

 

The annotation marks was added as a work-around on the 1-minute graph, because the automatic tick-marks were not acceptable,  and the graph was not permitting me to add custom tick marks settings at 1-sec intervals, due to limitations of the program.  I hope you are considering removing this limitation on a future release,  so we can set our desired tick-marks for the Time axis.
