Scatter Chart: custom visual question

Hello, 

 

The Scatter Chart within Power BI has a nice feature where, if you add a slicer to your chart, each time you select a slicer option the bubble markers will "slide" around the graph, assuming the same data is plotted from one slice to the next. I'm not sure what this particular feature is called.

 

My question: I've created a customized scatter chart using PBIVIZ that I'm generally happy with. However, when I add a slicer, there's no bubble "sliding"--it looks like a new chart is generated each time a slicer selection is chosen, even though my data points are just moving around the chart for each slice selection. 

 

Is this "sliding" feature a possibility for customized scatter charts? If so, where would I edit / add this functionality within the PBIVIZ package I've created?  I've looked at both the "properties" and "capabilities" files, but nothing seems terribly obvious to me in terms of what I ought to add or alter. Help?

 

Thanks!
