Line chart X axis issues - (week) showing earlier data points not present in the dataset

Hi There,
On my dataset I have a constrain that only shows dates after 31/03/22.

As you can see, when I hover over the first data point it shows that the date is 01/04/22 - I am wondering why the Line chart X axis which is a week ending number is showing 27/03/21.

I had a look and I can confirm that in the data I don't have anything earlier than 01/04/22.
Does anybody know how I can achieve this?

Try not to use a Continuous scale

or

Add-ons -> Data handling -> Include zero values -> turn off

or

Also, if your [Date] field comes from a separate Calendar table, please make sure you are using "Where Exists()" / "Left Keep ()" / "Where [Date]>=" construction in the script. And check an existed values in the Data Model.

If I take off the Continuous scale the 27/03/22 disappears but I get some gap at the beginning. It is very odd.

Would you know how to get rid of it?

as you can see, there is not enough space for the dimension values:

a) make the chart higher;

b) use VizLib object with option to set amount of dimension values characters;

c) Presentation.Scrollbar = Mini chart; Presentation.Scroll alignment = End; X-axis.Label orientation = Horizontal; X-axis.Number of axis values = Custom; X-axis.Maximum number = {an amount which gives you full dimension values shown without ...};

But! At the very beginning I'd not switch off Continuous scale but rather checked twice a data quality (marked bold in my previous post)

Hi there,
It's not a matter of making the chart higher; even if I make it bigger, the x-axis stays the same.
