Hello,

I am currently using the XY Chart in Ignition Perspective. I noticed that when the size of the chart decreases (e.g., due to resizing), some of the labels on the x-axis are automatically omitted.

Is there a way to prevent this behavior and ensure that all x-axis labels are displayed regardless of the chart's size?

Thank you in advance for your assistance!

Check the setting of `xAxes.0.appearance.grid.minDistance`. Make it smaller.
