Hello,

I am facing a strange issue when I add second series on XY chart using the same X axis and Y axis. The plot showing strange trend. Here are the screenshots of plot and properties.

**When using one series:**

**When using two series.**

I am not sure what I am missing here. Please suggest.  
Thank you in advance. 🙂

Try:  
`xAxes.0.render : value`  
rather than category.

If that doesn't work then copy and paste the chart here (and format it using the \</\> button). Then do the same with the dataSources (since the bindings won't work outside your system).

That worked when rendered from Category to value, but scatter plot shifted. That's not an issue. It worked. I overlooked this property. My bad 😑  
Thanks a lot. 👍

Thanks for the feedback - but is there still a problem? It looks OK to me.

No, there is no problem. I re-checked the X and Y values by hovering over the bullets. They are matching with data source values.

Don't forget to add engineering units to the axis labels!
