[GrafanaQuestion] I wanted to change how the x-axis is displayed. Change the way the dates are displayed in dd/mm/time to just the day of the week

Hi @nivekc Try the override of the units to be time:dd ( you will have to type it in, as it is not in the list of choices). [image] Unfortunately, I have found it only works (for me) on tables. Maybe one of the Grafana staff can comment on if it should not work on other visualizations.

@grant2 , Thank you so much for taking your time on this. I tried your solution and yes it only works when I change it to a table. But on trying to implement it on the visualization, it reverts back to the day and time format.

On changing it to time:dddd it looks like this as a table [DashTable] But on switching to Bar chart visualization it produces this output [image_2022-03-01_104432]

@anon70503803 @anon80964540 or anyone at Grafana: Can anyone comment on if the day of week time format should work on other visualizations (besides Table, where it works fine)?

@grant2 @nivekc @superknight I’ve brought this to the teams to double check, but I’m fairly sure there isn’t a way to adjust the appearance of the time on the x-axis with the time-series panel. You can use strings on the x-axis for the bar chart, not bar gauge, so I was able to duplicate this tabl…

@anon70503803 Yes, for bar charts it works just fine. The limitation comes in the time series. Yes, I think it might be worth a feature request. Thanks.

How can I change graph X-axis to show days of the week(Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday etc)

Thanks Grant, I’ve been playing around trying to get this to work for a fair while.
