Scatter Plot Examples

This workflow shows three different varieties in which the Scatter Plot node can be used: standard settings, multiple selection enabled, colors for group information assigned to data points.

What is a scatter plot? A scatter plot represents input data rows as points in a two-dimensional plot. It is useful for bivariate visual exploration as you can easily display in a two-dimensional space a strong relationship between two features (columns) in the data. Interactively experimenting with different input columns on the x-y axis and with different graphical properties can be an efficient strategy to find those relationships.




This workflow shows how to use the Scatter Plot to visualize two columns by visually encoding each row as a different marker in a cartesian graph.Additionally the Color Manager can be added to define the color of such markers. Right click on the nodes and select "Execute and Open Views". To change the columns to be visualized double click on the nodes. To save your in-view interaction use "Apply" and "Close" in the View lower right corner. Scatter Plot - Standard settings- No colors assigned for different groups- Single selection of data points only Scatter Plot - Colors by group- The color manager node is used to a assign color attribute to different values of a categorical variable- This information is then used in the node view to color data points according to group membership Scatter Plot - Multiple selectionsRectangular selection - Click in plot area and drag mouse to select all points in rectangleLasso selection - Click in plot area while holding down ctrl/cmd key to draw selection shapeSave your Selection with "Close & Apply" in the lower right corner of the view.
