[Working with Charts](https://learn.turbo-chart.com/working-with-charts?hsLang=en) November 10, 2026 # Turbo-Chart updated Timescale Settings ## V2.5 of Turbo-Chart introduces additional Timescale settings v2.5 of Turbo-Chart introduces additional timescale information, allowing up to four different rows/columns (Depending on chart orientation) to be displayed on charts.  These columns/rows, shown in (1) below allow different timescales to be displayed adjacent to the the chart. The timescales are shown in (2) below.![](https://learn.turbo-chart.com/hs-fs/hubfs/image-png-Nov-10-2026-06-47-56-9550-AM.png?width=670&height=495&name=image-png-Nov-10-2026-06-47-56-9550-AM.png) Timescales ending with *Number* allow ordinal counts to be displayed with the starting count value to be set shown in (3) above, when a *Number*  field is selected. Note that ordinal dates can be set to mid-periods, and gridlines can indicate these periods in place of calendar periods if desired. Each timescale may also display its labels and/or gridlines with a selected colour and linestyle. Line thicknesses may also be shown in decimal places to create different thicknesses. Turbo-Chart will provide a warning that too many lines are attempting to be drawn, for example if hours are drawn on a multi-year timescale range, to avoid performance issues. **Note** this option is chart specific and each chart may be displayed using different options above.   - [Getting started](https://learn.turbo-chart.com/getting-started?hsLang=en) - [Importing Data](https://learn.turbo-chart.com/importing-data?hsLang=en) - [Working with Charts](https://learn.turbo-chart.com/working-with-charts?hsLang=en) - [Printing and Publishing](https://learn.turbo-chart.com/printing-and-publishing?hsLang=en) - [FAQs](https://learn.turbo-chart.com/faqs?hsLang=en) - [Troubleshooting](https://learn.turbo-chart.com/troubleshooting?hsLang=en) - [Tickets](https://22261683.hs-sites.com/tickets-view) [![logo-white-line-02 (2)](https://learn.turbo-chart.com/hubfs/logo-white-line-02%20(2).svg "logo-white-line-02 (2)")](https://22261683.hs-sites.com/home?hsLang=en) Turbo-Chart Support, Linear Project Software Pty Ltd, Sydney, Australia & London, United Kingdom [mailto:support@linearprojectsoftware.com](mailto:support@linearprojectsoftware.com) Copyright © 2025, Linear Project Software Pty Ltd
