Hello Guys,

Is there a way to visualize numerical data on bar chart with x-axis type set as on timestamp as shown in the image [_Image is copied from my grafana dashboard_]?

By default, chart node 2.0 does offer to visulaize data in bar-graph format but its customization is limited.

Regards,

When I built the bar chart, I could have sworn I saw that ChartJS didn't support time series x-axes, so had to skip it. On re-checking the [documentation](https://www.chartjs.org/docs/latest/axes/cartesian/time.html), I can find no mention of that, so it's something we should be supporting.

I've added [Add "Timeseries" x-axis for Bar Charts · Issue #1293 · FlowFuse/node-red-dashboard · GitHub](https://github.com/FlowFuse/node-red-dashboard/issues/1293) to our development board
