colour scatter points relative to reference lines?

robmarr789 — Wed, 25 Nov 2020 16:16:04 GMT

Can any one show me how to colour the scatter points on this chart based on the following rules

1. If points are in top right quadrant then colour Green

2. If points are in bottom right then colour Red

3. If points are in bottom left then colour Orange

4. If points are in top left then colour blue

Bare in mind the reference points are set relative to the percentile so will move as and when new data is added.

Try this color expression

=If(Sum(sales) >= Fractile(TOTAL Aggr(Sum(sales), CustomerGroupName), 0.5),

If(Sum(variance) > Fractile(TOTAL Aggr(Sum(variance), CustomerGroupName), 0.5), LightGreen(), LightRed()),

If(Sum(variance) > Fractile(TOTAL Aggr(Sum(variance), CustomerGroupName), 0.5), LightBlue(), LightMagenta()))

Used Light Magenta for Orange, but feel free to change all the colors based on your requirement

Hi,

Here's a simple reply with hard coded values

The color property is set in the following screen:

In order to use calculated values add another expression with percentile calculate and put this expression name in the IF

Would you mind showing me the expression for percentile calculate?

Hi Robert,

Sunny formula looks ok.

In order to calculate percentile you need to use the Fractile(X,0.5) formula.

But if need be I cna provide the formula, let me know
