Scatter plot for separate measurements

Hi,

I would like to simply replicate a common Excel feature in Power BI.

I have two separate sets of measurements, lets say:

x1 = [1,2,3]; y1 = [2,5,7] and x2 = [2.2, 4.5, 5.6, 3] and y2 = [5,8,6,2].

Can I make a scatter plot with multiple series (in this case two) just as in Excel?

 

Regards,

Andrea

      Dear Cherie,

      unfortunately your answer is not fully clear to me.

      Regarding the original problem, i.e. plotting in a scatter plot as two different sets x1=[1,2,3], y1=[2,5,7] and x2=[2.2,4.5,5.6,3], y2=[5,8,6,2], are you suggesting to create to following table x=[1,2,3,2.2,4.5,5.6,6.3] and y=[2,5,7,5,8,6,2]  and category=[1,1,1,2,2,2,2] and plotting them as mentioned in your post by dragging x and y in "X Axis" and "Y Axis", respectively and category in "Details"?

       

      If so, it is not working in my case. I watched the video already, also before writing here, but really I cannot understand how to apply that instructions pratically.

       

      Thanks,

      Regards,
