Scatter chart with play axis - need help!

Hi

 

I am making a report with Johns Hopkins Covid-19 data. I tried to create a scatter chart with Confirmed% (count of confirmed cases/population) and death% (count of death/population) as x-and y-axis, and Country in the field of Details and Date in the field of play axis. Please see the sample data below:

Date (D/M/Y),Value,Status,DIM LOCATION.Index,Population (2020),Confirmed %,death %,Index

Before I put Date in the Play axis, everything works well.

However, after putting Date in the field of play axis, the chart doesn't work anymore

I did not find any problems by testing your sample data, would you mind sharing your .pbix file?

Hi @Anonymous 

 

Make 2 measures = divide(calculate(count(status),status = "confirmed"),average(population)

 

Same for death. Post this drag date in play axis, it will work.
