There is no function to change axis type: Automatic, Text, Date about libxlsxwriter

That isn't currently supported in the C version. It is supported in the Python version:

https://xlsxwriter.readthedocs.io/chart.html?highlight=text_axis#chart-set-x-axis

I could look at adding it to the C version however it is a feature that is rarely used in practice and I don't know if it will actually fix any real world problem that you have. In addition it is easily replicated with the existing APIs by setting a text format on the data the chart is graphed from.

But let's take a step back. What is the issue that you are having. the doc you linked to talks about setting millisecond precision. Is that what you are trying to do?

Thank you very much for your reply,
I have made a mistake when putting the link of the problem that I have, the correct link is:
https://www.extendoffice.com/documents/excel/4203-excel-chart-with-date-and-time-on-x-axis.html

The library generates this graph, where the X axis type is set to automatic.

The correct graph that I want to show is the following, the only thing that changes is that now I have manually changed the type of the x-axis to Text.

It is very important to be able to change the type of axis since anyone who works with time data will encounter this problem.
it's possible?

Ok. Could you add a small working example (to avoid confusion) and I will look at adding the feature.

Just a reminder that without a small working example I cannot evaluate this issue and will close it after a week.

Closing due to lack of response.
