Hi,

The samples in the KX Dashboards documentation mostly&nbsp;have sample queries to populate charts in daily format, i.e: `Date xasc select Date, Day4\_Cumu from ChartDNA

I’ve been having difficulty getting any of the chart types to show intraday data that only has a time column, i.e: `time xasc select time, bid from prices where sym = `ABC

When I hit execute, the data editor shows the two columns, but the chart never populates. Am I doing something very obvious wrong?

I’d appreciate any help at all with this.&nbsp;

Hi Tomás,

Have you tried using ChartGL (https://code.kx.com/dashboards/chartgl/). When you assign your data source it will automatically assign the x- and y-axis for you. This is an example from a dataset available inside Dashboards Direct.

Hi Declan,&nbsp;

Thanks for the links and the suggestions: I’ll focus on the ChartGL component.&nbsp;

When I put a Date column into the query (just returning .z.d) the Financial Chart component started to populate.&nbsp;

Thanks again,

Tomás.&nbsp;
