Scatter plot, trend line and R-squared value

Hello,

I'm performing a scatter plot on Power BI Desktop with X axis, Y axis, Legend and Size values.

I noticed that into analytics panel the trend line is not available (I can select only X-Axis and Y-Axis constant line, min and max line, average line, symmetry shading and ratio line).

If I remove size into scatter plot the trend line becomes available.

Is there any possibility to show the trend line even if I add size info scatter plot ?

 

In addition is there the possibility to show the R-Squared value when the trend line is shown?

 

Thanks in advance for the collaboration

Elisa

The different analytics lines kind of come and go as they please. I've never seen an R-squared analytic line.
