Scatter Chart Bubble Size

Hi FlowViz
Download PBIX with these examples
Yes you can use this measure for bubble size
Bubble Size = CALCULATE(COUNTROWS('Table'), FILTER(ALL('Table'), 'Table'[CycleTimedays] = SELECTEDVALUE('Table'[CycleTimedays]) && 'Table'[DaysSinceCompleted] = SELECTEDVALUE('Table'[DaysSinceCompleted])))To give this
You might also consider introducing jitter to one of the axes to shift overlapping points slightly.
This measure shifts the x value slightly for points that overlap. It uses the [Bubble Size] measure from above.
Jittered X = IF([Bubble Size] > 1, SELECTEDVALUE('Table'[DaysSinceCompleted])*(RAND()), SELECTEDVALUE('Table'[DaysSinceCompleted]))Giving this visual. The amount of jitter/shift for each point can be tweaked so it's not shifted too much.

Thanks Phil - could I use jittering to avoid having the need for a larger bubble size? If so how would I do that?
Ah I actually realised that over time (as DaysSinceCompleted increases) the jitter won't work as the new measure will give a range of results since it was completed 😞
