# Scatter Chart
Scatter charts are based on basic line charts with the x axis changed to a linear axis. To use a scatter chart, data must be passed as objects containing X and Y properties. The example below creates a scatter chart with 3 points.
```javascript
var scatterChart = new Chart(ctx, {
type: 'scatter',
data: {
datasets: [{
label: 'Scatter Dataset',
data: [{
x: -10,
y: 0
}, {
x: 0,
y: 10
}, {
x: 10,
y: 5
}]
}]
},
options: {
scales: {
xAxes: [{
type: 'linear',
position: 'bottom'
}]
}
}
});
```
## Dataset Properties
The scatter chart supports all of the same properties as the [line chart](./line.md#dataset-properties).
## Data Structure
Unlike the line chart where data can be supplied in two different formats, the scatter chart only accepts data in a point format.
```javascript
data: [{
x: 10,
y: 20
}, {
x: 15,
y: 10
}]
```
