      A common problem I have is that the major tic marks don’t always go to the end of the axis. I can specify Specified tic marks and enter the major tic marks, here 0,6,12,18,24. Entering all the minor tics marks seems tedious 😉 Is there some way to specify a start, stop and interval? I looked in the manual and didn’t see anything like this. Thanks

        One way to do this is to use the expression column to create the tick marks

        Specify the expression as “#-1”. Since the # column doesn’t have a length you have to specify that, set that to 25.

        Create a text column (or numbers) and where you want major tick marks enter in values such as 0,6,12,18,24 and leave the rest blank.

        Then in the axis setting, select X tick marks = Labels, use the ticks expression column as the locations and the text column as the labels.
