Description
__Proposal:__
`yyyy-MM-dd`, `dd MMM`, or even allow a format string to be entered.
__Current behavior:__
The formats are a hard coded list and they all include the time.
__Desired behavior:__
An x-axis label option for datetime values includes format strings that include only the date and not also the time.
__Alternatives considered:__
Describe other solutions or features you considered.
__Use case:__
The time is meaningless when data is grouped daily, weekly, or more coarsely.
Contributor guide
Research direction
The issue does not name files, tests, or an entry point. Start by locating the x-axis datetime formatting UI; done when date-only formats such as yyyy-MM-dd or dd MMM can be selected for coarsely grouped data without displaying the time.
