@kennethyeung, what is the field on x-axis? What is your transforming command? Which is the chart visualization you are using? How many data points do you have on x-axis? Do you have single chart in one row or more?

Please add more details so that community members can assist you with your use case.

there are limitations to charts that when they have too many data points, the axis will either start grouping and only showing a few, or might disappear. it depends on what format the axis is in and how many data points there are, etc. More information would be helpful, such as a snippet of the xml/spl. thanks.

Can you share your search query here ?
you can try to add limit =0 to show all the results
ex. |chart count by sourcetype limit=0
