Just what I was looking for, I couldn't find out how to get more than that one dot.

Can you added the dataset here as well?

[@TableauTim]

It’s the default data set in tableau. You already have it.

Great job

Approx how much data is needed to build a scatter plot like this one? 50 rows? 500 rows? 5000 rows?

[@TableauTim]

Number of rows doesn't matter, the level of detail does. you could build a scatter plot with 1 row of data and one point. Scatter plot is simply one measure eon each axis and a dot for each distinct item in your data set.

@@TableauTim Thank you

[@FaisalKhan-wf8ys]

@@TableauTim Is it possible to use discrete measures on the axes? Or do they need to be continuous? Can you explain the latter a bit please?

[@TableauTim]

@@FaisalKhan-wf8ys Might be better to google "Discrete vs continuous Tableau" to get a better understanding of those teo terms. Discrete measures doesn't make sense int he context of tableau. You could have integers ( whole numbers) and visualise those as discrete items but having say Discrete currency value isn't really possible because a currency as number is a continuous value. I need more than a comment allows to explain it but hope that gets you going.
