    Oh hallelujah.  I thought it was a long shot that anybody here would be
familiar, but I am very glad you responded.  Hopefully you've come across
the issue that I've had before here, or at least know of some better
documentation sites than what I've found sofar.
    I have an application that's monitoring blood plasma levels of a substance,
and I just recently switched its graphing from showing the daily plasma
concentration to an hourly concentration (over a 30 day period).  Thus, my
formerly 'chunky' graph now looks like the following:
https://imgur.com/a/H818rwO .  Unfortunately, the x-axis is now completely
obliterated with the 'ticks'.
    I can't remember everything that I've tried to get the x-axis to only show
ticks/labels on every 24th one (ie one for each of the 30 days graphed), but I
know .ticks() isn't doing any good, nor are any of the other related
..tick*() methods that I've attempted to use to this point.  I've tried
'manually' setting the ticks that I don't want to show to 'null', an empty
string, and the like, but when I do that it goes back to the 'chunky' graph,
only showing every bar that still has a 'proper' x-axis tick label.
    I've seen examples like the following, so I know that this can be done:
https://www.tutorialspoint.com/d3js/d3js_graphs.htm , I just can't figure out
how on Earth to do it.  :P  Oh I tried .tickValues() specified manually, as
well, and that didn't work, either.  :(
    I'd be very grateful for anything that you might be able to offer on
this issue; I've been banging my head against the cinderblocks for awhile on
this now.  And hey, even if you can't help, I appreciate the response.  :)
    Take care!
