I made a chart with numeric X axis, but it groups everything by day, even if I set the x-axis format as a time. I would like to print points with time as X, but not grouped per day. I also set my "on change of" to " this will be printed for every second". Anybody any idea?
 
If you want the chart to show times across days, e.g., the total for 9AM over some time period, then you should try using a formula instead of the datetime field:

time({table.datetime})

No, I just want to plot the change of a value over time. (Imagine reading out an electronic thermometer every 5 minutes.) Actually I found out it works, but only if you plot data spread over several days. If you plot everything inside one day, the program considers all X values to be equal and plots all your values on top of each other.
