Hi Martijn,

This landing page is temporary and contains obsolete info.

We will update it soon.

The source code for core visuals is private, hovever, we have got a collection of visuals with open source code. You can find them on that page.

Hi,

I am looking for a way to exclude individual data points from the Enhanced Scatter plot. In the standard Scatter Chart in Power BI desktop, this can be done by right clicking on a data point. Unfortunately, this cannot be done in the Enahce Scatter.

Thanks in advance for your suggestions.
