Default Column Graphs

I am having trouble with the scaling of my X axis (catagory axis) for a
column chart that I have created. It is a series of numbers from 0 to 55. I
need the graph to have a linear scale at the bottom and the columns to be
distributed accordingly. Any suggestions? Thanks

Default Column Graphs

What data are you using for your X values?

A column chart does not have a numerical axis. The axis is comprised of a
set of labels, or placeholders. Do you need columns, or would another chart
type do?

Information on chart types and axis types:
