Can the scatterplot tool plot two sets of data?

[Gualigee]

like this ：

I can only import one set of data as the configuration only allows me to enter one:

Thanks

You can combine the data using union tool.

First use a formula tool to give label to each data and then plot them. And use configuration to set color by labels.

You can set the data order in union tool to choose which points be front and which should be back

Hope this helps 🙂

Hi@atcodedog05 , 

Thank you for your reply. 

I followed your instructions. I am not sure if I got your points. 

I got error messages when I ran the workflow. 

I have attached my workflow if you don't mind taking a look at it. 

Thanks again.

Hi @Gualigee 

This scenario kind of seems familiar. This is from Udacity nanodegree I presume.

Use interactive chart from render tool to plot the scatter plot.

I am currently away. I will try to build a solution as soon as I am back.

Please check category name that have space character.

You have to delete space at field name and re-select Grouping field at Scatterplot tool.

But it's hard to found if there's a blank at the end of the field name.

Please see this solution.

Hi @AkimasaKajitani , 

Thank you for spotting out the space error.

Hi @atcodedog05 , 

I am trying the interactive chart tool you mentioned as the color of the scatterplot created by scatterplot tool looks ugly. I add two layers, but only one layer is displayed:(

[AkimasaKajitani]

When you want to use a grouping field, you can use Split by Category field at Transforms tab.

It needs one layer.

Hi @Gualigee 

As suggested by @AkimasaKajitani  you can split by category on this tab

you change the colors here 

I have taken up and completed the course. On a personal note if you have a 1 month subscription. I would highly suggest you to complete the course as soon as possible because the section at the end are pretty though and will take time. Anyways once you have completed the course the content gets unlocked as free and you are free to do experimentation.

Hope this helps 🙂

If this post helps you please mark it as solution. And give a like if you dont mind 😀👍
