Unstack or Split Date/Time Data Based on Time Interval
With version 2024, you can convert long-format (XY) Time Series data into wide-format (XYXYXY...) for easy graphing, exploration and analysis of the sub-segments:
- Common Time Intervals: Year, Month, Week, Day, Hour, Minute
- Auto-detection of Date column in Source Sheet
- Set Start and End in Interval and Date Wrapping
- Option to add Additional Label Rows to identify date and time intervals of the sub-segments
