I have a line chart that shows the total volume grouped by quarter. The x-axis is currently using 'categorical' type and showing labels like '2017 Qtr3'. However the forecast feature is disabled in this case, only when I change X-axis to be "Continous" type then I can use the forecast feature, the problem is the x-axis label is now showing month name 'Jul 2017' instead of quarter name, which is confusing as the chart is supposed to show quarterly number. How can I get the forecast feature but still retain the categorical x-axis label ?
