I want to plot a simple figure: Day vs Weight with Graph Builder. But the y axis looks incorrect. It uses my data value in axis, and I can't change it to, e.g. 0, 0.004, 0.008, 0.012...

Hi Jeff, 

My weight column is continuous.  I just found out that I have value ordering in my column property. Once I removed it, the y axis became normal. Thank you for your help!

Re: Y axis is wrong in Graph Builder

Your Time column appears to be a Character column, not a Numeric column.  Go into the Col Info dialog and change the Data Type to Numeric, and the Modeling Type to Continuous

Thanks for answering my  question. I changed what you suggested, unfortunately it didn't solve the problem.

Re: Y axis is wrong in Graph Builder

Check the Modeling Type on your weight column. I think you'll see that it's either Ordinal or Nominal. Change it to Continuous and the axis will be numeric and continuous also.
