Changing scale of a continuous Y axis

You can change the minimum and maximum scale of a continuous Y axis in a Scatter visual.

A continuous axis scale has an infinite number of possible values in equal intervals. Compare it with a categorical axis scale, which has a finite number of evenly spaced values, limited to the values in the dataset.

To enable continuous Y axis, see Enabling a continuous Y axis.

To change the minimum and maximum scale of a continuous Y axis of a Scatter visual, navigate to the Axes menu, and make adjustments to the two selectors, Min Y Scale and Max Y Scale.

The image on the left shows the minimum and maximum scale of the Y axis from 0 to 24. Notice in the right image, how the scale changes when we changed the values from 10 to 30. Increasing the scale gives a clearer visual representation of where the carbohydrate levels fall within a range of values.
