Graphs in dtaed panels - just showing the @obsid on the obs-date axis

Dear Eviews team

I use Eviews 11, Sept 19 build, 64 bit.

When graphing a dated panel, I am looking for an approach to show the @obsid rather than dates on the obs/date axis

With the below example code I get the following graph. While this comes close to what I am after, the figures in the second row of the obs/date axis labels look quite odd. What do these figures mean, and, more importantly, how to get rid of them?

Best, mamo

I'm not sure you can, unfortunately.

You might be better off removing the time dimension from the panel, and using an obsid series as the 2nd dimension, rather than time.

O.k., there is indeed the workaround of restructuring the workpage.

Nevertheless, this seems to be a bug as one would expect the observation-id (and only the observation-id) to show up on the date/obs-id axis when respective option is selected.

Will this be resolved in future version of EVIEWS?
