Scatter plot

Hello,

I would like to do a scatter plot in power bi, but I don't find the good way to do it.

I have two colums: one column parameter with lot of diferent parametes, and one column value like this example of tab below : 

 RAW DATAS (3).xlsx - Excel.jpg

And I would like to do a scatter plot by selecting two parameters from the column parameter that could be diferent from Calcium and phosphorus if for example, I would also want to look at Magnesium and sodium together:

 

RAW DATAS (3).xlsx - Excel_2.jpg

 

Do you know if there is a way to do it in power bi ?

Thank you!

@matdel I have created these two tables manually. But they can be created automatically like below. make sure there is no relationship between these tables.

 

Table 2 = DISTINCT('Table'[Parameter])

pl. create two measures

 

Calcium = CALCULATE(SUM('Table'[Value]),'Table'[Parameter]="Calcium")
Phopshorus = CALCULATE(SUM('Table'[Value]),'Table'[Parameter]="Phopshorus")
 use these two measures in x-axis and y-axis like below

Hello, yes this solution works if I use only those two parameters. But my problematic comes from that those two parameters are variable. I would like to change them and not necessary use calcium and phosphorus.

In the column parameter, I have also others like : magnesium, sodium, Iron,... and I would like to be able to change easily the parameters used in the graphics

@matdel in this case I have modified my pbix file and now you can select two parameter. one for x-axis and one for y-axis.

hello, yes i forgot that I have also a column Batch number

Dig NA.csv - Excel.jpg

But it doesn't work, even when I put Batch number in details.

I would like to have the values of the calcium on the X axis and the value of the phosphurus on the Y axis.
