Here, we will find answers to questions like what is a scatter plot and how do we create it in our Tableau software?<\/p>\n<h3>What is a Scatter plot?<\/h3>\n<p>Scatter plots are typically used to visualize two measure values or similar field values as a single dot on a graph. It is a two-dimensional graph where the position of a data point or dot is decided by two measure values; one on the x-axis and another on the y-axis. In Tableau, we can also add trend lines along with the dots of the scatter plot to see and analyze the trends hidden in our data.<\/p>\n<p><em><strong>Before reading further check out the steps for creating a<a href=\"https:\/\/data-flair.training\/blogs\/tableau-waterfall-chart\/\"> tableau waterfall chart<\/a>.<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n<h3>How to Create a Scatter Plot in Tableau?<\/h3>\n<p>Follow the steps given below to create a scatter plot in Tableau Desktop. For explanatory purposes, we have a set of sales data of an electronic store. We will create a scatter plot using this data so that you can understand the process better. You can use your own data source and create a scatter plot according to your requirements.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Step 1: Select the Measure<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Open the Tableau worksheet in which you wish to create a scatter plot and connect to your data source. From the <strong>Measures<\/strong> section, select a measure and drag it in the <strong>Columns<\/strong> section.
