X axis values on the chart
Hi romiadam,
1 - If you right click on your graph and choose X Scale > Style you'll see some options. Probably one of them fits your requirements better than the one you have now. If you get lots of values but they're all the same, you can also check the "Display Format" tab on the Properties dialog and ensure that you have sufficient precision in your display format.
You can do the same programmatically if you need to, using similarly named properties.
2 - Yes, you can use a Cursor. They can be added programmatically or via the GUI on the front panel. You'll probably want to change the position to be something like (-1, 40) or something off the X scale to prevent the point appearing (because you can't not have a marker, except by having a space) and then setting the style to be only a horizontal line (although if the vertical line location is offscreen, it probably matters less...).
3 - I thought you could, but I can't find a way now. So maybe, maybe not. I'll look some more...
1) It's not quite the answer, but a step in the right direction. Right-click on the graph and go to the scales tab. Click on the box shown below to change the style of the scale (I think the setting shown below would be what you are looking for). Let us know if that solves your problem. Getting those exact numbers would be slightly more difficult but I suspect that this is the answer that you were after.
2) .....just seen cbutcher has replied whilst I was typing. Cursors are a good way.. you could overlay a picture if you were desperate, or possibly play around with using a chart and incrementally fill your data plot. This wouldn't be great though.

The box in the lower red circle here is the same one controlled by the "X Scale > Style" option in the front panel right click menu (or the Property Nodes).
Although from the Properties window (as shown) you can probably reduce the number of clicks if you want to do the same for the Y scale, since there's a dropdown for the scale of choice at the top (here showing "Time (X-Axis)" ).
