Default Bar Graphs

Using the time scale option (for x-axis), is there any way to hide/delete
specific months that have no data after selecting the min and max.

To use a time scale axis, you need to retain all of the dates within the
span of time. There's no way to hide/delete certain months.

If you don't have many gaps, you could apply this technique to the X axis:

Thanks for your help. I ended up changing the X axis to "category" and it
allowed me to display the specific months I wanted.
