Default x-axis scaling

Actually, I'm creating an environmental stress profile having two y-axis
values (temperature and voltage - with different scales); and time in the
x-axis. There are short periods of time where the temp and voltage
transition; and long periods of time between. So I want the plot to show
that information accurately (i.e. - steep transitions).

I can give you an XY Scatter chart with exact times running up the Y axis.

Is this any good for you?

You might be able to play around with it to see if you can get it to do
exactly what you want it to do.

I am trying to create a plot that uses x-axis values of time. Most data
points are in one-hour increments, but a few are only minutes apart (e.g. -
1:00; 2:00; 3:00; 3:01; 4:00). The x-axis scaling assigns them all equal
charting values (i.e. - they all reside an equal distance from one another).
Is there an easy way to assign their actual values to the chart?
