I have a time series of 365 data points corresponding to the days of the
year. I'm struggling with creating useful and readable labels for the
x-axis. Using the default I get them numbered 0 - 364 with labels at every
50th tick mark. This is very readable, but not so useful as it takes a
while to realise that 250 equals September 8 or that May 1 is 120. On the
other hand, if I specify all 365 dates as x-labels, they overwrite each
other and are impossible to read. Ideally, I would like the start (and end)
of each month to be shown. Individual dates are not so important, but
making it clear where the months are would be helpful. Any suggestions on
how to achieve this?

Kind regards,
Pablo L
