Label Scatterplot Chart: Plot Two Values Against Each Other Using A Scatterplot, And Label Each Service
Feb 13, 2008
I'm working for a local authority who have been given a mass of survey data. In this particular task, residents of each small district within our area have been asked their levels of satisfaction with a service, and how important they think that service is. I want to plot these two values against each other using a scatterplot, and label each service.
Excel does not automatically allow this so I used a very good sheet from the forums here: Attach labels with names to the points in a scatter plot. It's the top file, and works well. However, I can't seem to customise it for my own data.
Problems include:
- Excel often freezing when I try to run it
- Not all the data being picked up for the chart
- Incorrect labels being picked up..........
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.
I'm using Office/Excel 2004 on a Mac Mini duo running OS10.6.8. I upgraded to Office/Excel 2011 but I find the program so horrible I had to switch back to 2004.
The problem: On one chart, the Y-axis label values have moved from outside the left-hand axis to _inside_ the right-hand axis and within the plot area. I can't figure out how to move the labels back to the right position.
When I plot the above data: Y-Axis against the X-Axis in scatterplot, excel plots the data points in X-Axis order (from smallest value to largest). However, I would like the graph to be plotted in the order by "DATE".
For example, the first plot (furthest left data point) will be June 2009 data (1.25%, 74.09%) and the last plot (furthest right data point) will be Dec 2009 (0.97%, 68.28%).
I have a number of charts (mostly pie) I don't have a legend, but I do have "Show label and percent" selected.
When I add in new data the actual chart updates to show the right sized pie slices... but the values on the labels don't update as well. I can't figure out how to make that happen?
I have a scatter plot with 150 points closely grouped. Enabling the label option clutters the graph. A cleaner way would be to hoveri the mouse over a data point and pop-up a box displaying it's value (x,y) as well as a label contained in an adjacent column.
Details:
The default functionality is that when the mouse hovers over a particular point the yellow pop-up box appears withData set label Data point name "x" Data point (x,y) and one can choose to show "label-name-point" or just "point" by accessing the Tools-Options_Charts menu item. What I would like instead is to hover the mouse over a particular point and get the yellow pop-up box with the following functionalityData set label Data point name "label" Data point (x,y) where the label is contained in an adjacent column in my data spreadsheet.
I read a post by Andrew Poulsom that stated it is probably not possible to customize the yellow pop-up baox and then offered some vba code to allow a mouse click to bring up a label. I was wondering how to implement this code in the spreadsheet. Also, does the graph have to be embedded in the worksheet "as object in", or can I use "As new sheet"?
I have two userforms with a label which displays CompetitorID. I want to transfer content (displayvalue) from UF1.label to UF2.Label. I know labels don't have a value property but want to simply know if it can be done as presently I'm getting run time error 380, can't set property value.
VB : HeadEntryForm.lbCompID = Me.lbCompID ' trf selected competitor ID to ID field on HeadEntryForm
I have a spreadsheet with a customers information and various parts we make for them. I need to be able to take this information and incorporate it into a label format. I need something quick and easy as there can be 150 parts per customer
I have a userform in Excel and I would like to have a label calculate from the sum of 3 different labels. I have tried a few ways of which none worked.
This is what I currently have. This returns $0.00 in the label value but does not calculate...
Code: Public Sub TotalCACost() If TextBox12.Value > "" Then Label685.Caption = ""
[Code]....
The reason that I have it as a public sub is that I am calling it to Private Sub extBox12_Change() as well as a couple of other textboxes so that when ever TextBox12 or the other textBoxes gets changed, the value will recalculate. The "other textBoxes" change the values of label443, 444, 445, 385, 386, 387 etc..
I created a userform where if a value from cell x is true then the label caption changes to value in cell z. While everything works fine, the label caption does not seem to appear in my userform until i click on the label. Is there anyway that it can appear automatically once the userform opens?
Also example of my code is:
Private Sub EventDateResult_Click () If Range("A5") = "1" Then Me.EventDateResult.Caption = Range("N4") End If End Sub
I have a workbook, which I use for different departments that displays a number of different pie charts and I have found that a particular pie chart omits a specific label repeatedly. The pie chart displays the wedge within the chart itself, but does not display the label. At the moment I have data labels with percentages. All other labels display, of which there are 7. I found a solution that fixes the problem each time it arises and that is to select Chart Tools/Format/Series 1 data labels and then Format Selection. When I then select any data label, I click on "Clone Current Label" and the missing label appears with the correct percentage amount. I use the workbook for multiple uses and rather than have it present as a template (*.xltm), it is a macro-enabled spreadsheet (*.xlsm). Could this be related to the problem?
I have a simple line chart but I want to add an text description to each of the points. The data is driven by a pivot table so the text needed may change based on the drop down options.
If I was using the below data I would want the line graph drawn using the date and value, but the data label at each point to state the description.
Date Value Description 01/01/2010 90% Text A 01/02/2010 80% Text B
I make a bar chart from series of data from cells.
The data consist of values that regarding of students achievment in a test. On the cell if the value is 56.67 and on the data label is shown 56.67.
When the cell value is 50.00, which then I've change the format of the cell to custom format to 0.00;; so it only show 50 but on the data label of the chart it will show 50.
Even after I change the format of the data label it will still show '.' At the of the value.
How to hide the '.' On the data label if the decimals value is .00?
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?
How do I name my data series in a chart so that the name consist of both a cellreference and my own text? Example: "Name" & Sheet1!A1. If the value in A1 is 2 then the series name shold be Name2
I think that this is probably rather simple, but the answer is eluding me, I cannot find anything that helps online either. I have a set of data that looks similar to the sample below, however it is quite a bit longer. I would like the 'Effect' as the X axis, with the 'Score' as Y. This basically shows three columns, which is fine. However I would also like to use the 'ID' as the label against each plot point and I'd like each plot point to look the same.
The problem I am having is that to get the labels to show, I am having to add each series manually, which is rather time-consuming. Is there a correct (faster) way of doing this as I think I'm missing something obvious!
I have 6 pivot charts within a document. I use a macro associated with a button to refresh the tables and therefore the data displayed on the charts.
However, each time I refresh the data, the 'data label' font size also refreshes. What is particularly odd is that 5 of the charts are pie-graphs, of those 5 graphs, the font size only resets on 4 of them (with the data labels in a single chart staying at my desired font size).
I can manually put the font size back to that which I desire but I'd rather it just didn't change in the first place.
I've had a look to see if there's any noticeable differences between the 5 charts but there's nothing which I can find.
I'd be happy to run a bit of VBA to set the font size as I want it, if there isn't a better solution.
I want to automate the Display labels in my Charts using VBA Coding…
I would need to use this small code in Charts with different Scales as some of the Scales in my Data are in a very large Range close to Trillions so its not possible to have these as the Primary-Y-Axis Scale and therefore I would need to use the in-built Display label option which Excel provides..
However, I always prefer to have the scale in the Range of Thousands so the Max I can have in the Scale can be 10,000 so if there is any Number more than that or the Scale is going above than I would prefer that this gets auto-calculated to Multiply with the remainder and show appropriate Scaling.
For Ex:In this example My largest Number is 4500000000 which is 100 M..So I would want the scale to show 4500 and the Display label as X Millions..
So The Display Label would be different for different Ranges but the Max Scale preffered would be 10,000.
one of my excel reports, i am using a dsum formula and plotting a chart against it. i do not want to show the zeros on the graph, is there anyway i can do that, i could not find anything in the tools -> options.
I wanted to ask if you know any charting software which can give weight to elements on a chart when two or more variables overlap? Ideally the color intensity of, say, circles should increase from pale blue to vivid blue depending on the number of the data items which are operlapping at one point. I include a sample chart which should give you a general idea of the chart I want to make and the data set from which it was made.
I have over 5000 cells of data. I want to take 4 data points at a time, average them then plot them on a dynamic chart. I know how to do the dynamic chart but how can I take the average of the the first 4 numbers store it in a different cell, then the next 4 and so on...
I have a chart that shows up to a list of 28 people and the number of sales for that day. I'm try to make the chart only show the names and number of salesperson that are not = to null. This is what the chart has for values right now "=' Nest Average'!$C$6:$C$33". How can I make it so that it only shows those cells if not = to null.
I have a textbox with a label & he will type in his name in the textbox & it appears on the label. Is there any way to put the word "Hi" on the label & then have his name appear after "Hi" on the label. I can do it using 2 labels side by side but I would like to have it all on 1 label
I am trying to create a button where it automatically copys and paste a label. I need to change the label name from the original to say "New". Since this button will be used constantly, how do I find the last Label copied, and change the caption on that lable? If you look at the code I have, you would see that it calls for a specific Label number to be changed (Label 826).
Sub CreateANewPN() Dim LastRow As Long Dim SecondLastRow As Long Range("I65536").Select LastRow = Range("I65536").End(xlUp).Row SecondLastRow = LastRow - 1 Range("A" & SecondLastRow, "A" & LastRow).Select Range("A" & SecondLastRow).Activate Application.CutCopyMode = False Selection.EntireRow.Copy Range("A" & SecondLastRow).Select Range("A" & SecondLastRow).Activate Selection.Insert Shift:=xlDown ActiveSheet.Shapes("Label 826").Select Application.CutCopyMode = False Selection.Characters.Text = "NewPN" End Sub
