Click and drag mouse to select multiple points on a scatter plot at once
Okay, while the user can click on a single point on a scatter plot and use the CTRL button to select multiple points, it would be cool to be able to use the mouse to select multiple points by "drawing" a "box" around all of the points of interest. All too often, I'm interested in all points that are in a specific area of the scatter plot and selecting the individual points is both a hassle and tedious.

- Lack of this feature put at risk my project which goal is to replace Spotfire with Power BI
- After selection, when the size of one of them is modified, all selected objects become the same size.
- This is a much needed feature not just for XY scatter plot but also for bar chart with a long tail. This along with scroll zoom and hand select tool on the chart would be a huge plus.
- I agree with an above poster. I am (trying) to come over from Spotfire, but without this feature I really don't know how I can make the switch. This is such a basic feature; I really can't believe it's not available.
We've released this functionality as a preview feature for now. Look forward to its general availability! Power BI Desktop August 2020 Feature Summary | Microsoft Power BI Blog | Microsoft Power BI
