I would like to combine / overlay a bubble chart and scatter chart with straight connectors.
I understand that, without VBA, it is not possible to combine a bubble chart with a scatter chart.
Unfortunately, I am a VBA newbie, and so I cannot write my own code (though I can usually adapt code to my specific environment).
My question is: does anyone have VBA code to share that will convert a scatter chart series (x,y data in 2 columns) to a bubble-style chart (bubble radius in 3rd column)?
I would like combine (overlay) a bubble chart with a connected point scatter chart. I understand that, without VBA, this is not possible. However, I understand that, by using VBA, the markers of a scatter chart can be configured as circles with their size proportional to values in a specified column. This pseudo-bubble chart can then easily be combined with a connected point scatter chart.
My question is: does anyone have any VBA code to share that shows how to configure a scatter chart as the type of pseudo-bubble chart described above.
I need to plot various data on top of stock charts.
This data could be irregular in date: it could be weekly, or simply random.
To plot this data by itself requires a Scatter Chart.
From what I know so far, you CANNOT DO THIS.
However, I suspect this could be done if I build a Stock Chart from scratch using a Scatter Chart.
Error bars can be used to make the tails, however, I don't know how they built the body bar which has the characteristics of a bar (border, and interior.)
But since I don't really need those two characteristics, I just need a wider error bar line that is provided in the chart edit window. I'm guess through a macro, there are wider line widths assignable.
I'll attempt to explain what I'm hoping to do. I have a column of data that I want to plot out into a chart. For example the data points might run from -1.50 to 2.5.
Let's say there are 20 data points in the column and they are spaced thruout the range shown above. They tend to cluster amoung themselves into 2 or 3 distict groups.
I want to first produce one horizontal bar that runs from the -1.50 to 2.5 overall range and secondly, I want to overlay a scatter chart horizontally over the bar showing where the data points lie within the range and also so I can visually see the clusters of points.
With the data residing in a column, when I generate the scatter chart, the points are laying verticle within the chart and spreadout horizontally. I can manually get what I want by narrowing the chart down to the point that the points lie on a straight vertical line, but I haven't been able to figure out how to "rotate" the chart 90 deg to overlay the scatter points within the bar chart.
Naturally, the optimum solution would be such that I could generate the charts originally and then allow the spreadsheet to generate the new charts as we modify the data values, etc.
create a Quadrant Bubble chart. I have found examples of using scatter charts but unfortantely those charts do not satisfy what I am trying to accomplish.
I created a bubble chart whose x-axis and y-axis show every 10th value between 0 and 100 (i.e. 0, 10, 20, 30...). The axes intersect at (50, 50) to create 4 quadrants.
I want to erase/hide the values on the axes (i.e. the axes will no longer show 0, 10, 20, 30... and at the same time, the bubbles will still be in the same place) to create 4 blank quadrants and make my bubble chart easier to look at.
If the bubble size is 0-5, I need the bubble color to be green If the bubble size is 6-15, I need the bubble color to be yellow If the bubble size is 16-25, I need the bubble color to be red.
So, right now my chart looks like this: chart.png
As you can see the top bubble is the right color, but based on the bottom bubble value, it should be green.
How do I make this change colors dynamically based on the bubble size value?
I have the Lat and Long for each of several US cities. I want to use these to create a bubble chart that plots the cities and which I can place over a US map picture.
However, I have the problem that, because of the curvature of the earth, the city locations form the lat and longs are not tying with the map.
how to adjust the lat and longs so that they will correspond to the typical US map?
For example, the base lat and longs for Denver are 39.5742 and -104.8588. What formulas can I use to modify these to match the standard map projection?
I’m trying to take an existing bubble chart, paste new data into the sheet, then march sequentially from row to row, adding specific cells within each as a new series in the chart until I run out of rows. Below is my latest attempt (not working of course).
Sub setseries1() Range("A1").Select 'select upper left cell to start Do Until ActiveCell.Value = "" 'stop when you run out of rows ActiveChart.ChartArea.Select ActiveChart.ChartType = xlBubble With ActiveChart.SeriesCollection.NewSeries 'use these values for the next series .Name = ActiveCell.Offset(1, 0).Select .BubbleSizes = ActiveCell.Offset(0, 1).Select .Values = ActiveCell.Offset(0, 1).Select .XValues = ActiveCell.Offset(0, 9).Select End With 'go to next row, and repeat ActiveCell = ActiveCell.Offset(0, -1) Loop End Sub
I have a worksheet where I am collecting data and a seperat Chart. The first part of this code which adds a new row in my table works perfectly fine, but the latter part (based on a macro recording) does not. I need to specify the relevant row for the new series in the bubble chart. The colums are of course the same.
When you hold your mouse over a bubble on a bubble chart, it typically displays the x value, y value and size value. Is there any way to add other captions to display? For example, if my chart is based on sales data and I'm plotting a point based on ease of probability (x axis) and dollar value (y value)....I'd also like to see the initials of the salesperson assigned to that prospect when I hover over the bubble?
I am looking to create a dynamic bubble chart. To do this I am using offset to create the series formula which without listing all the data names turns out to be something like this (where 297 will adjust to the number of rows with data): =SERIES(Project!$A$5:$A$297, Project!$J$5:$J$297,Project!$P$5:$P$297,2,Project!$Q$5:$Q$297)
My problem is that by creating the chart in this fassion I am unable to get a unique name for each data point. For example, if row A looks like this,
A5: 1 A6: 2 A7: 3
each data point will be named 1 2 3. How do I either create a new series for each row dynamically or get the specific name from column A to associate with the correct data point?
I am trying to format the colors of the bubbles on my bubble chart to Green (>5), Yellow (4-5), or Red (<4) based on the value used to create the bubblesize.
The problem that I am having is that .BubbleSizes is property of type String, not range like .xValues, or .Values. So instead of pulling in the value, I am pulling in the reference and getting a "Type Mismatch" Error. The reference of my data for .BubbleSizes is $D$5:$D51. Each row is it's own series and the list is dynamic, so I need to be able to support future rows without a lot of maintenance.
Here is the code that I have so far.
VB: Sub DataSeriesFormat() ' ' DataSeriesFormat Macro ' Format Data Series based on defined parameters for Green, Yellow, and Red. Created by Derek Steinmetz 7/24/12 ' Dim x As Integer Dim val As Variant Dim Green As Range
Data: starting from row1 Column A Column B Column C Supplier Sales Rating Sup1 100 5 Sup2 100 3 sup3 65 5 sup4 80 4
Column B (Sales) is the X Axis and Column C (Rating) IS THE Y Axis
Query: On the Scatter chart when I want to show data Labels or when I hover the Mouse over the Points (100,5), for example, how do I get the corresponding Supplier Name to show as well ?
I have, _________X________Y Brown ____1.5 ______0.1 Black _____1.2______ 0.5 White____ 1.9 _______0.2 Red ______1.1 _______0.9 Yellow____ 2.0 _______0.4 Green _____1.8 _______0.7
Now the Colors are the lables I need to put in each x and y data.
Please look at the sample workbook below. The chart you see below is fine BUT I would like in a pivot table chart, so I could select any days on the pivot chart. I have tried it to do it myself but for some reason the time is not displaying on the pivot chart correctly. Any help please ?
P.S. If not possible then can we add a scroll bar or something?
The attached file has a scatter chart in which all of the data is properly displayed except the X axis. How can I get my X axis to reflect the data I have selected?
I have 200+ XY pairs I want to chart and see a visual representation of their distribution. Then I want to cursor over exceptional points and see their identity. I don't need (nor want) data labels, disparate markers, nor a legend. I just want the points scattered on the xy plane. Also, the data set changes depending on user-controllable filter criteria.
There are two problems: 1. If I build it through the wizard as a single data series, everything is fine except that the charting process seems to replace the X value of the XY pair with a sequence number once I swap in a new data set, and ... 2. I seem to loose the individual point identities for cursor-over purposes.
The only solution I can think of for these issues is making each XY pair a one-point Series, but that's a hugely laborious way to do it. If that's it though, is there a way to globally load the independent data series and set every data point marker and color to be the same?
However, if I could do it as a single series, then I still have the issues above. Is there a way to prevent Excel from converting the X values to sequence numbers once a new data set is swapped in, and is there a way to identify the individual points for cursor-over?
Naturally, the first column contains someone's name. The other columns contain XY coordinates. These coordinates start at 375 and end at 499 on both axes.
I'm needing the points to show the member name and xy coordinates in the popup when hovering over the point.
How do I accomplish this?
Here's some sample data.
MEMBER X Y JOE 397 397 JIM 421 384 JANE 467 406 JEFF 389 395
I am using the following code to delete all of the series in the chart. It is give type mismatch error.
Sub allchannelchart() Dim i As Integer, s As SeriesCollection ActiveSheet.ChartObjects("allchan").Activate 'ActiveChart.PlotArea.Select For Each s In ActiveChart.SeriesCollection s.Delete Next s
I have downloaded a file called "scroller.xls" under the section "Excel charts". The file was made by Andy Pope and shows how to make a graph dynamic by combining Named Ranges and a scroll bar.
My chart is actually XY scatter chart with data points connected with smooth lines. I followed but when I start scrolling, the data points (smooth lines) got "eaten up" as I move.
I tried line chart and it works perfectly.
Does scrollbar work for XY scatter chart? Is there a different formula for XY scatter chart?
And I want the chart to be in new sheet, but I couldn't put the scrollbar in new sheet. I would like to know if it is possible when the chart is located in new sheet because my chart is quite large.
I have a series of X-Y Data (0-10 in both axis) that I want to overlay on an area chart to show outliers outside of an accepted condition. I have been able to create the area chart and the scatter chart separately but when I try to combine them the axis gets messed up. I tried using a secondary axis but I am not that skilled
I have attached the data and my feeble attempts at creating this chart.
I would like to use multiple scatter plots and bar charts in one chart. Problem is that X-Axis goes horribly wrong every time, even if I have same points on both scatter and bar. Here is Data for 2 Scatter Plots
I start with Scatterplot and put those in the graph, then I add other data and change it to Bar Chart, but this is the point where X-Axis gets mixed up and scatter plot X data and Bar chart X data are not matching.
I have some data where I am plotting cumulative M events versus time (blue). I would like to make a tick mark, or dot or something to indicate when event N (pink) occurs on the blue line. Imagine that I am measuring eating (M) versus time and that I want to show on that line the points when food is delivered (N). this is the plot I desire (ive shown some ticks and dots as examples, how can i do either one?): http://www.yousendit.com/transfer.ph...2F360E1F246391 and this is my data/current plot: http://www.yousendit.com/transfer.ph...27974E102C0620
Attached is a chart I am trying to create. So basically, I originally used a line chart but it didn't have the flexibility of the scatter chart, but i am having a very hard time formatting the X axis. First of all - I would like the line in the middle at the 0% point to actually go to the bottom so that the x axis labels aren't in the middle of the graph. Second the x axis labels aren't showing up correctly. They should be quarters: 1Q:02, 2Q:02, 3Q:02, 4Q:02... Finally, how can I show the correlation between these two data points plotted - the R-squared. THANKS!!! Auto Merged Post;I actually was able to figure out most of what I asked. What is remaining: how do I calculate the R-Squared on the chart? Isn't there a way to do it automatically in excel on the chart.
In the attached spread sheet I have created a scatter plot. How can I label each of the markers with its appropriate label from Column A - the Company Ticker. When I right click to show data labels it brings back the incorrect column. Also is there a way once the labels are brought in to put them in the circle and so that the chart doesn't look too clumped together.
