Scatter chart visual missing the "Details" field

Hi everyone,

 

I notice in many online videos as well as in the Microsoft help page on scatter charts that a Details field is available. By default however I can only see the "Values" field. 

 

Does anyone know if the Details field has been deprecated?

  • Hi, imranamikhan ;

     

    As far as I know, the new version of the scatter chart does change a bit, but this feature has not been abandoned, Depending on the data , might worth creating an index column.

     

    • Details: to specify what categorical column the visual represents
    • Legend: to specify which column sub-divides the Details data
    • X-Axis: specify what column represents the horizontal axis
    • Y-Axis: specify what column represents the vertical axis
    • Size: specify the column that represents the marker sizes
    • Play-Axis: specify what column (usually a date column) is responsible for the trend overtime.
    • Tool Tips: add a data field or measure to be included in information displayed when hovering on a mark in the chart.

      This is NOT a solution. You are merely telling the original poster that his problem, (and mine), do not exist.
