Scatter in Blazor Charts Component
18 Sep 202423 minutes to read
Scatter
Scatter Chart is used to visualize the relationship between two Cartesian parameters. To render a scatter series in your chart, define the series Type as Scatter in your chart configuration. This indicates that the data should be displayed as individual points scattered across the chart.

};
}
NOTE
Refer to our Blazor Scatter Chart feature tour page to know about its other groundbreaking feature representations. Explore our Blazor Scatter Chart Example to know how to plot data with two numeric parameters.
Binding data with series
You can bind data to the chart using the DataSource property within the series configuration. The DataSource value can be set using either SfDataManager property values or a list of business objects. More information on data binding can be found here. To display the data correctly, map the fields from the data to the chart series’ XName and YName properties.
@using Syncfusion.Blazor.Charts
<SfChart DataSource="@ChartDataList">
<ChartPrimaryXAxis ValueType="Syncfusion.Blazor.Charts.ValueType.Category"></ChartPrimaryXAxis>
<ChartSeriesCollection>
<ChartSeries XName="X" YName="YValue" Type="ChartSeriesType.Scatter">
</ChartSeries>
<ChartSeries XName="X" YName="YValue1" Type="ChartSeriesType.Scatter">
</ChartSeries>
</ChartSeriesCollection>

@code{
public class ChartData
{
public string X { get; set; }
public double YValue { get; set; }
public double YValue1 { get; set; }
}
public List<ChartData> ChartDataList = new List<ChartData>
{
new ChartData { X= "USA", YValue= 46, YValue1=56 },
new ChartData { X= "GBR", YValue= 27, YValue1=17 },
new ChartData { X= "CHN", YValue= 26, YValue1=36 },
new ChartData { X= "UK", YValue= 56, YValue1=16 },
new ChartData { X= "AUS", YValue= 12, YValue1=46 },
new ChartData { X= "IND", YValue= 26, YValue1=16 },
new ChartData { X= "DEN", YValue= 26, YValue1=12 },
new ChartData { X= "MEX", YValue= 34, YValue1=32},
};
}Series customization
The following properties can be used to customize the Scatter series.
Fill
The Fill property determines the color applied to the series.
@using Syncfusion.Blazor.Charts
<SfChart>
<ChartPrimaryXAxis ValueType="Syncfusion.Blazor.Charts.ValueType.Category"></ChartPrimaryXAxis>
<ChartSeriesCollection>
<ChartSeries DataSource="@ChartDataList" XName="X" YName="YValue" Fill="green" Type="Syncfusion.Blazor.Charts.ChartSeriesType.Scatter">
</ChartSeries>
<ChartSeries DataSource="@ChartDataList" XName="X" YName="YValue1" Fill="blue" Type="Syncfusion.Blazor.Charts.ChartSeriesType.Scatter">
</ChartSeries>
</ChartSeriesCollection>
</SfChart>
@code {
public class ChartData
{
public string X { get; set; }
public double YValue { get; set; }
public double YValue1 { get; set; }
}
public List<ChartData> ChartDataList = new List<ChartData>
{
new ChartData { X= "USA", YValue= 46, YValue1=56 },
new ChartData { X= "GBR", YValue= 27, YValue1=17 },
new ChartData { X= "CHN", YValue= 26, YValue1=36 },
new ChartData { X= "UK", YValue= 56, YValue1=16 },
new ChartData { X= "AUS", YValue= 12, YValue1=46 },
new ChartData { X= "IND", YValue= 26, YValue1=16 },
new ChartData { X= "DEN", YValue= 26, YValue1=12 },
new ChartData { X= "MEX", YValue= 34, YValue1=32},
};
}The Fill property can be used to apply a gradient color to the scatter series. By configuring this property with gradient values, you can create a visually appealing effect in which the color transitions smoothly from one shade to another.

}Opacity
The Opacity property specifies the transparency level of the Fill. Adjusting this property allows you to control how opaque or transparent the fill color of the series appears.
