PowerApp saving X Y coordinates and represent visually in powerbi
I have a powerapp with an image, and when i click on the image the X Y coordinates is saved to a sharepoint list.
there can be multiple locations clicked, and sometimes around the same area.
i would like to display the image and where it was clicked according to the data captured.
what is the best method for this?
embed the image, and have a scatter chart visual over the top?
Hi gemidriver
Thank you for using Microsoft Community Forum.
Creating a scatter plot and adding a background image should work as per your requirement.Additionally please check out Enhanced scatter as well which is a custom visual by power BI with enhanced support for Background images.

Hi gemidriver - Yes, your idea is absolutely on the right track. Here's a solid way to implement this kind of visualization in Power BI, assuming your image is static and you want to plot multiple clicks (X, Y coordinates) over it
some reference links:
Saving an image to a sharepoint list
20+ More Power Apps Chart Types With QuickChart
Display Images from a SharePoint Document Library to Power Apps
none of those reference links are of any help to me.
if you have any other info or details to share i would appreciate it
