Smarter algorithm to label x-Axis

When we use auto-bin column with bar chart on x-Axis we get most of the labels are repeaters, however, the data itself has enough variety to be shown on the x-axis. If we go to Edit-> Column properties, we can change the format of the data itself which will affect the chart and display the x access correctly.

Doing it manually, will be time consuming.

So it needs to be Automated.

    Hello Samar,

    I want to better understand this problem with X-axis labels and emailed you multiple times. Could you send me a dataset or a DXP that reproduces this problem?
