How my timeseries chart can be fixed?

Can't see the time labels of a time series line chart... What an old-school interface isn't it! especially in the age of Tableau...

Bigger resolution, increased height and width, lowering font size don't help...

 

Any ideas?

If you have that many labels, you probably don't need to see every one. If only the first of every 5 is necessary, you could replace labels 2-5 with nulls so you can clearly read the remaining labels. I've attached a solution on how to achieved this with a Multi-Row Formula tool and a Formula tool

nice workaround @CharlieS...

 

I'm guessing it will be pretty easy to analyze anomalies in time-series data and

 

1) make sure the starting point is labeled

2) end point is labeled

3) Min and max points

4) Keep points for changes in trend too

5) Then 3 sigma extreme points' added if still readable

6) Check if it fits for 2 sigma points as well

 

If this can be done automatically will fix a lot of graphing issues I presume...

Even this idea can make it to the python tool contest?
