Scatter Chart with Play Axis conditional bubble colors

Hi

I have a scatter chart with play axis wherein I'd like to change the color of some of the bubbles depending on whether it's actual vs forecasted data. I've created a workaround as shown below, but it would be much more elegant if both series appeared connected.

 

Any advice on how I can make this look a bit more elegant?

Thanks

Hi @WilliamN ,

 

It has two groups of value if you put "year label" in the visual. So you need a column full with one value, but scatter chart doesn't support conditional formatting. You could post your ideas here, maybe it will be a feature of Power BI in the future.

I had to add dummy data, but I believe the concept still stays the same.  I have two series that need to be merged, but the color of the bubble would still need to change when the forecasted data is rendered via the play axis.

I suspected conditional formatting would not be feasible for the play axis.
