stats/chart - Set number of xtick-labels

[light_of_sirius]

Hello

i would like splunk to show some caption for the x-axis. 

As you can see, displaying all ticks would be too cramped. So, Splunk decides to show None.

However, still some ticks would be helpful.

Is it possible to set the number of ticks shown?

base search | chart agg(field_geberdifferenz) as "Geberdifferenz Hubwerk" by Blockstelle

or 

base search | stats agg(field_geberdifferenz) as "Geberdifferenz Hubwerk" by Blockstelle

leads to this plot.

I can't share any data though.

Thanks 🙂

# will return only first 10 Blockstelle. I don't think it makes sense if you randomly pick first 10 you should apply some logic to see of your interest.

i assume you want to show the x-axis values. if yes, then, on the dashboard xml source, pls add:

<option name="charting.axisLabelsX.majorLabelStyle.overflowMode">ellipsisNone</option>
<option name="charting.axisLabelsX.majorLabelStyle.rotation">-90</option>
<option name="charting.axisTitleX.visibility">visible</option>

Adding these options, whilst checking that they are set only once, does not produce any visual difference.
