Hi Kannuri,

we probably have different country settings, so there is a misunderstanding of the systems.

You have to look if the date format you enter into the reference line expression is the same as on your x axis in the chart. You can test this by copying it into a text box and see what is displayed there...

Hope this helps

Hi Kannuri,

this is a scaling problem only. If you enlarge your chart to double or triple length you will see all the dates. Or if you use the inclined representation on the axis...

Everything is there, Kannuri, nothing is lost.

Hi Kannuri,

this is because you tell QV to do so. See your script:

Yes you can , take the calculated dimension as follows

Month&'-'&Year

you can also do ni backend

Month&'-'&Year               as               MonthYear
