Scatter plot - overlapping Data points

Anonymous — Tue, 13 Aug 2019 10:19:27 GMT

I have created a scatter plot with point having the same cordinates, but when i click on any of the points it shows data for only one point , it ignores the other overlapping points. Example it shows only point P.04 where as it ignores I.01 which also lie on the same cordinate . Can anyone help me to resolve the issue ?

Hello,

Please, try the following steps:

"The scatter dots are rendered sequentially, and in this case since they are perfectly stacked so only one gets the click event. For points like this,

if the user wants a single click to select all 5, they need a scatter chart that has a composite group on X and Y. Remove Reference from Details, then update aggregation for X and Y to be “Don’t summarize”:

Place this visual exactly on top of the first. Then open the selection pane and ensure the X/Y grouped visual is higher in Z Order so it gets the clicks. The chart underneath will only be used for category labels. Also, increasing the size of the dots makes them more clickable."

Hi @v-evelk

How can I change the order in which the dots are staked when I have a legend? In the same coordinates I have three points that overlap but each correspond to a different category, how can I change which category goes on top?

Hi @v-evelk I'm seeing the same issue and I don't see an option to say don't summarize in my drop down.

I have a measure called 'Days' on x axis & '# of Users' on Y Axis.

The details section has application name in it.
