I just tried and could hide the whole label but not just the time. It seems it is one object. I’m not sure other than putting a box over it to hide it. I’m thinking this might be possible via scripting, I was looking at the Jfreechart docs but I could not find this in particular. Maybe @Kevin.Herron or @cmallonee might know if there is another way? ---

Try putting this into the configureChart Extension Function `self.getComponent(0).getComponent(0).getDomainAxis().setDisplayDayInTitle(0)` ---

@schenk could you point me in tips to figure that out in future? As reading the documentation didn’t really help me. ---

Not better but shorter ```auto chart.getPlot().getDomainAxis().setDisplayDayInTitle(False) ``` ---

Most of what is possible is in the [JFreeChart docs](https://www.jfree.org/jfreechart/api/javadoc/), which the Vision module wraps for its charts. But there are exceptions, where IA extended some of the JFreeChart classes. As in this case: [AutoTickDisplayDateAxis](https://files.inductiveautomation.com/sdk/javadoc/ignition81/8.1.1/com/inductiveautomation/factorypmi/application/components/chart/AutoTickDisplayDateAxis.html) In practice, one would print the `type()` of an object that you encounter in your configureChart method so you can find it in the corresponding docs. ---

This stuff is part of the Module Development SDK. In the online user manual, on the bottom of the left sidebar, is a link to SDK Documentation. In the introduction to the SDK docs, in a right sidebar, are links to the JavaDocs.
