Can anyone help me limit the range of a slicer or the dates of a bar chart?

[netschool]

I have a dynamyc slicer with a series of dates that expands over three months (without hours). And with that data I created a dynamic bar chart and a slicer. 

And so far it's ok, but when I select a range of three or less dates on the slicer the chart looks like this.

It add hours in between the dates and I don't want that. So I was wondering is someone may know how to either delete the hours in between the values of the chart or how to only select an range of five dates in any part of the slicer?

hi  @netschool 

Change the type for X-axis from "Continuous" to "Categorical"

Seems it should work as per solution provided by others, it's strange. Can you try once to get rid of time from your date field in powerquery itself and then see if it works.

@netschool , if you data type is datetime, change it to date and check

Hi @netschool ,

What the date format for your DATE column which is used on x-axis on the chart? Is it dd/mm/yyyy hh:mm:ss ???

If the format is as above, then try changing format to dd/mm/yyyy.

Thanks,

The data type of my column is simple "Date" and this is the format that I was using (dddd, dd mmmmm yyyy). I changed it as you said but sadly it still shows the hours in between.

Thanks though.
