title: Plotting with full dates as the axis
body: <p>I am having trouble with x-axis of my data. Currently, it looks like this. </p>
  
  <p><code>[201909240908, 201909240956, 201909241002, ...</code>] It is in <code>YYYYMMDDHHMM</code> format. Not only is this graph wrong (it should not be a straight line in the middle), it is also hard to read.</p>

  <p>How can I change my a-axis data while still retaining the date? Ideally, the x-axis value would show up as <code>DDHHMM</code> on the bottom with the year and month hidden.</p>

  <p><strong>Update</strong></p>
  
  <p>The dates show up a lot better now. But the intervals are equal instead of being accurate.</p>
