Hi,

Is it possible to use 2 different X-Axis (with date format) to show 2 dataset at different time (kind of golden record) ?  
I can create multiple X axis but it seems that only one can be of date type.

Thanks

You can have multiple x axes on the classic chart. Go into the chart customizer and click on the X-Axes tab. Add another Date axis. Lastly, go to the Dataset Properties tab and associate one dataset to one x-axis and the other to the second x-axis. Of course, that means you need to have more than one dataset on the first Datasets tab.
