Correlation component

Use a Correlation chart component if you want to identify how one data point influences others. A scatter chart is most commonly used to render data in this component. The Correlation component plots multiple data points on the y-axis against a selected x-axis point.

The data series to be used for the x-axis is represented by the first row in the grid and can be easily changed by selecting a series name in the X-Axis drop-down list, as shown below:

When viewing a Correlation scatter chart online, you can:

• Hover over a scatter point to view a flyout that contains the value for that scatter point, and the time that the two data series had a point at that value.
