    Data points as X axis

    Hello,

    I have a (probably) simple question.

    How do I make the scale on my X-axis just be the points I'm graphing.

    Example
    if the data I'm graphing on my x axis is:
    x
    3.4
    4.5
    6.0
    6.3
    100.3
    1140

    I want the scale at the bottom of the graph to consist of only those numbers.
    My x-axis is in logarithmic scale in case that is relevant.

    Thanks!

    Use a dummy series and it's data labels to draw your own axis.

    I have positioned the built-in axis to the top so you can compare
