EasyChart cannot do that.

The closest you can get to such would be a DB pen pointing at a view in your database that delivers the data with the timestamps altered.

I would recommend using the Classic Chart and defining two X-axis ranges.

No, sorry.

No, sorry. It doesn't even have the extension functions to do your own tag drop handler. You might go _way_ under the hood with custom listeners, but it would be rather challenging.

No. There’s nothing you can supply to an EasyChart that will make it do the offset you desire.
