https://github.com/Microsoft/powerbi-visuals-utils-chartutils/blob/master/docs/usage/installation-gu...

 

right after i start modifying the tsconfig.json and the pbviz.json ... the visualization in debug mode goes blank ... , but i can see still in the rows in the data view...  

 

Am I missing something ?

Update powerbi-visuals-tools and add Dataview Utils as follows.

npm install -g powerbi-visuals-tools

But every time , I try to add the legend  for a scatterchart , based on what I can see in the api for legend in the 1.4 ...  it says the svg scatterchart does not have a Legend property ...  Do you know if there is a good example out there with a legend ...  any help would be helpful ...
