Add Further configuration for the X Axis when using dates

What is the problem or goal the end user is trying to solve or accomplish?

When grouping data by months, depending on the amount of months in the X Axis, days will also be displayed. This is not ideal since the data is grouped by month, so the days are extra un-necessary information on it.

The same happens when aggregating data by weeks, months will also be displayed.

Another issue is that when weekly aggregation values are displayed, and you a select a customized time range, your X axis labels don’t match the data points, and are offset by just one day. It's confusing that the X-axis labels cant match the data points

How are they solving it currently?

It is not possible to workaround this behavior. If the X Axis displays a lot of months, days won't be displayed. However, if only a few are showing, days will be included too.

What is the recommended solution by the Customer?

Customer would like to have advanced capabilities to configure the information that will be displayed on the X Axis, including the ability to display only months, or only weeks, etc.

    Additional Use-Case:

    Customers are requesting this ability for other charts as well - including Bar Chart. Functionality would allow the user to be able to adjust the scale to a more meaningful and visually pleasing cadence. Currently for a bar chart, when there are more than 10 bars, logic kicks in the scale to display for every other bar unless there is a month change. From a visual perspective this makes it look inconsistent.

    What is the recommended solution by the Customer?

    Customer would like to have advanced capabilities to configure the information that will be displayed on the X Axis, including the ability to display only months.
