Re: [visualization-api] google chart x axis with decimal place
Hi Kevin,
Google Charts provides a few ways to specify formatting of axis ticks and
data values that allow you to include the decimal digits. I'm not sure
about the material charts (which are still limited in their feature
support), but for the classic charts, you can either specify a 'format'
option, or specify the exact tick values and formatted representation of
each using the 'ticks' option. For data values, use a number formatter on
the data to generate the formatted values, or specify them yourself for
each value, using e.g. { v: 1, f: '1.00' }
The format pattern for showing two decimal digits is '#.00'

Hi Richard,
In JavaScript, prepending 0 to a number means that it is an octal
number, and octal numbers cannot have decimal points. Try entering "01.00"
in a JavaScript console. You will get the error "SyntaxError: Unexpected

still have issues after removing the prepended zeroes, post back, and we
will investigate again.

Re: [visualization-api] google chart x axis with decimal place
OK, removing the decimal places fixes the problem.
However, i would like them there, or at least ':00'
What i am trying to display is time...but when i try to use 06:00, 07:00
etc it also fails
How can i use time in a chart on the x axis?

Re: [visualization-api] google chart x axis with decimal place
Again, Richard, the issue isn't the decimal places, it is the leading 0's.
You can enter 1.00 with no issues, but not 01.00. That said, your
decimal places aren't really giving you anything, since 1.00 === 1. There
is absolutely no reason to specify them.
It is perfectly reasonable to use numbers to represent the number of
minutes/seconds/hours/days passed since a certain event, but we also
support a number of ways to represent dates and times. You can find the
documentation for those here:
https://developers.google.com/chart/interactive/docs/datesandtimes
Please be aware that date formatting is currently broken for Material
Charts, and timeofday doesn't really format itself properly if it spans for
longer than a day. These issues should be fixed with the next release.
