Hi, i have this graph here: ![](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/elastic/original/2X/0/044c342069f6b9fb999e2e37a209fbb06ba13f05.png) as you can see, there are a lot of values (1001), so the X-axis gets pretty loaded visually. Is it possible to change the interval of values that appear in the x-axis without changing the shape of the graph? Or maybe even hide the x-axis values? ---

Is `Service` a number field? If so perhaps you could create a histogram instead of using the terms agg. If it's a string field you're in a tougher spot. In 5.0 you could create a [Painless](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/5.0/modules-scripting-painless.html) scripted field based on `Service` which reduces the number of unique values and run the terms agg on that. ---

Yes it is a number field and i have tried the Histogram option, but if i set the interval for example to 10, what will happen is that the data will agreggate (don't know if it is the right word) every 10 points and show only a minimum/maximum/..... of each 10 points I want to always have the real value, for every point ---

Ah apologies, I misunderstood the question. You want to keep the exact same data, but clean up the x-axis. There's no way to do that at the moment. That'd make a good enhancement request on our [github repo](https://github.com/elastic/kibana) though. ---
