Use discrete as plot scale type to skip weekend when plotting

When plotting financial graph where there is no trading on weekends and holidays, there used to be a gap in axis.

But now in Origin 2016, by using Discrete scale type, there will be no such gaps and the data will look more cotinuous.

This is the default setting for all plot types under Plot: Stock: menu.
