Scatter plot axis

I have a scatter plot with markers sized by a third variable but the x and y axis cut off markers which are close to the maximums if the marker radius is too large. Is there a way of getting the axis to change dynamically by a certain amout e.g. 20% larger than largest value, so that the markers don't get cut off?

@Fusilier2 , You can use min/Max value, you can use Measure in Fx

Try measure like

Min for x axis = Minx(Sumamrize(Table, Table[Details column], Table[Legend column], "_1", [X axis Measure]), [_1]) *.8

 

Max for x axis = Maxx(Sumamrize(Table, Table[Details column], Table[Legend column], "_1", [X axis Measure]), [_1])*1.2

 

same way do for y-axis too

Thank you for your respose.

That was my first idea. However for some reason when the fx box pops up it only gives me the format style 'field value'. Maybe it's my version of PBI or maybe this isn't possible in a scatter plot?
