I don't think it would be a good idea to force the user to put his mouse over each point to see if the defect is greater than 5. A scatterplot is used to see general patterns, so I would use a bar chart see all defects greater than 5 for specific categories in a easy way. Also in the scatterplot, I would color every dot a light color on a white background except for the dots with a defect greater than 5. I would make those dots stand out with an intense color.

Hi venkat,

You could add an expression that just appears in the pop-up message. The expression check if the x and y expression are the same and count the number of instances that are the same and if the number of instances is greater than 5, it would insert a 'Alert' text in the pop-up message. Would something like this work for you?

Regards.

hi karl,

please can you give me a sample expression for how to create it. Take your own example based on only two fields the expression should work.

Thanks
