ChartJS line charts using datasets fail to draw lines between datapoints

Product: PowerShell Universal
Version: 3.9.0

Hi folks,

I’m having issues with ChartJS line charts while using datasets. Though the chart renders with datapoints from both datasets, it will not draw the lines between the datapoints. Here is some code and a screenshot to demonstrate the issue. As you can see, the same data works with a single dataset in a separate chart.

I’ve tried specifying various ChartJS options such as spanGaps and showLines but they did not work. Default ChartJS behaviour is to draw the lines, so I don’t think any further settings should be required.

Any ideas?

Thanks!
