Line Graph Widget - Plotting time series

[Monte Goulding]

No the line graph widget only treats the X axis values as labels to be evenly spaced along the axis. It would be nice to add a way to scale the X axis value along the chart so that it is a scatterplot then a way to format the values on both/either axes as time/date/decimal precision etc.
