Scatter Plot Play Axis Error

Hello,

 

While editing a report online, the Scatter Plot visual does not allow me to place data of any kind into the Play Axis. When I replicate the visual in Power BI Desktop I do not have any issues. Any guidance on this issue?

 

Thanks,

 Bradford

EDIT: The reason I originally could not replicate the error in desktop is because I was not using the color saturation field also.

Hi bdurham15,

 

I have test on your issue but can't reproduce it. Do you still encounter with the issue if you create another scatter with another column? If probably, for further test, could you please share pbix with some dummy data with me?

 

Regards,

Jimmy Tao



After further testing, if I take the color saturation field out, the play axis seems to work properly. It will not allow me to populate both the Play Axis and Color Saturation fields. See below

After further research, it seems like this is still an issue waiting to be solved:

I tried creating another scatterplot with the same data, but that didn't help. There must be some limitation to the play axis that I am not aware of.

Here is the link to a pbix with dummy data that I still can't get to work.

Thanks for your help,
