Add Labels to Bubble Charts

Hi all,
is it somehow possible to add labels to bubbles in a bubble chart? I would like to see not only the values (X/Y) and the size but also the name.
In Excel one can use a Makro or an add in. Is something comparable also possible in Xcelsius?
Many thanks for brief answer!
Best, Chris

I am sorry to disappoint you: but yes, you have to make a new series for each point you want with a name on it...
A project I am on has the same problem, I have had to define 80 series by hand. Note that after 50 series the adding of new series gets rather sluggish. Note that also need to define the bubble size, or the items will not appear.
I have yet to figure out the way Xcelsius allows you to rapidly create "many" series by selecting an area ("By Range") and then manually setting up the series by picking the option "Rows". If you figure out how to do this, I am all ears.

  • Add label on y-axis and x-axis in excel using Report Generation toolkit

    Hello,
    I want to add label in x-axis(Date/Time) and y-axis(Temperature O=oC)
    There are only header and data array connection, how can i add label to the chart?
    Thank you.

    Hello,
    The way I've done this is by specifying the string inputs named "Column Header" and "Row Header" on the Excel Insert Graph.vi. This should provide the axis labels that you specify on your graph.

  • Bubble Chart Labelling

    I have a bubble chart where each doctor is his own bubble, and I have about 18 bubbles.
    Is there a way to make the labels on a bubble chart be the Doctor name, instead of the number of cases eash doctor has? With 18 bubbles it's difficult to tell from the legend which color equates to which bubble, as many colors are similar...

    Have a look here:

  • Bubble chart - labels?

    Hi,
    I'm a problem with the bubble chart. I need to display a specific label near every bubble. In excel It's possible with the data label function. I see that in the Xcelsius 2008 SP3 there is a "data label" selection in the Appearance - Text tab, but it allow to see only X/Y values, the series name or the bubble size....

    Hi,
    I am not sure if our approach suits to your requirements but we implemented a kind of legend below the bubble chart, showing the "technical" values of the bubbles (x-/y-position and bubble size) and some additional, more functional values like name and type of the corresponding real world object which is represented by the bubble.
    Our legend is dynamically filled via the drilldown-function of the bubble chart, i.e. when you move the mouse over one bubble all corresponding values of this bubble are displayed in the legend. BTW: These values remain in the legend until you move the mouse over another bubble, i.e. you don't have to keep the mouse over the bubble in question as long as you do not move it over another bubble.
    Hope this helps!

  • Bubble Chart with legend changes axis dimensions according to labels length

    I have a Bubble Chart with legend on the right. Data are by series and  the series are set  dynamically with a  drop down combo which replace the content of each series from time to time.  Every time the series changes, also the name of the series changes and the legend on the right  shows the new series names. The problem is that also the x axis dimension changes according to the new labels size, so the bubble chart changes its axis width in relation to the labels length in the legend. Is its possible to make somehow the bubble chart axis of a fixed lenght?

    Thanks in advance

    Hi Matt,
    I just got a chance to try out your suggestions, and the
    chart that is right in the main application renders the labels
    fine, but the exact same code loaded in as a module doesn't. And it
    never does, not even if the scale changes. Do you know why that
    would be?

  • Adding custom axis titles for Bubble Chart

    How to add custom axis titles (for each group of axis values) as shown in the attached figure to a bubble chart ?
    - Sen

    I'm trying to do essentially the same thing with a LineChart and I think I've got part of it figured out.
    I've subclassed CategoryAxis and overridden reduceLabels to return only certain labels (the "group" labels). Then I create a new axis by adding a LineSeries to the chart's <series> element with the new axis within the LineSeries. Then I have an AxisRenderer in the chart's horizontalAxisRenderers tag that refers to the new axis from within the LineSeries.
    Subclassed axis:
        public class MonthCategoryAxis extends CategoryAxis
            public function MonthCategoryAxis()
                super();
            override public function reduceLabels(intervalStart:AxisLabel, intervalEnd:AxisLabel):AxisLabelSet
                var currentLabels:AxisLabelSet = this.getLabels(0); // Param is ignored by super class
                var newLabels:Array = []; // Labels to keep
                var label:AxisLabel;
                var previousLabel:AxisLabel;
                for (var i:int = 0; i < currentLabels.labels.length; i++)
                    label = currentLabels.labels[i];
                    if (i == 0) // Keep the first label
                        newLabels.push(label);
                    else if (label.value.month != previousLabel.value.month)
                        // Only keep a label if the previous label has a different month
                        newLabels.push(label);
                    previousLabel = label;
                // Return a new AxisLabelSet with just the labels we want
                var newLabelSet:AxisLabelSet = new AxisLabelSet();
                newLabelSet.labels = newLabels;
                return newLabelSet;
    New series to create the subclassed axis in.
                <mx:LineSeries>
                    <mx:horizontalAxis>
                        <charts:MonthCategoryAxis id="MonthAxis" labelFunction="calendarMonthAxisLabelFunction"/>
                    </mx:horizontalAxis>
                </mx:LineSeries>
    The AxisRenderer. canDropLabels must be "true".
                <mx:AxisRenderer axis="{MonthAxis}" canDropLabels="true" showLine="false" tickPlacement="none">
                    <mx:labelRenderer>
                        <mx:Component>
                                <mx:Label width="100%">
                                <mx:Script>
                                    <![CDATA[
                                    override public function set data(axisLabel:Object):void
                                        this.text = outerDocument.getMonthLabel(axisLabel.value);
                                    ]]>
                                </mx:Script>
                                </mx:Label>

  • How to show data value labels in the charts without moving my mouse on the data point?

    Sometimes I need to show a chart with data value labels which is not necessary to move my mouse on the data points. However, it seems Xcelsius does not support this simple feature. Any alternative ways?
    Many thanks!

    Currently, Xcelsius does not support display of labels at data points. It would be difficult to move and update labels on a chart with dynamically updated data. However, a work around for a static chart would be to add a Label component in the desired location. This can be done for multiple static charts by using dynamic visibility.

  • Bubble chart in Xcelsius

    Hi,
    I am building a report which uses the below data
    Region______Verticals________calyear____Revenue
    APJ________Banking_________2007_____10
    EmEA______Insurance________2008_____20
    Central______Media___________CAGR____6.8
    I need to have 3 filters for Region, Verticals and calyear
    in the calyear filter I need to show only the values 2007 and 2008 but not CAGR
    on this data I need to build a bubble chart where it takes Revenue values in x axis CAGR in Y axis ,intially the default value for revenue should be 2007 on the chart and in the filter
    How do I need to arrange the data in excel for building this report
    Please help me out

    For the filter, you just need to exclude the row containing CAGR from the filter's source data.  However the data set you've provided is somewhat confusing since the value of CAGR under your "calyear" column does not actually represent a numerical year.  This might be an issue with the bubble chart since the bubble chart represents 3 dimensions that have to be numeric.
    Perhaps you can use a line chart and have CAGR as the Y axis label.  Make the plot series appear as bubbles and remove the connecting lines in the appearance settings.

  • Bubble chart gradient fill in obiee 11g

    when see the bubble chart in obiee 11g
    i have't find any gradient fill option.
    how i can apply gradient style to bubble chart.
    bethamsetty

    If you mean a colour gradient in the background try:
    Graph Properties -> Style -> 3D
    This makes the graph look 3D but also adds a colour gradient to the background.
    If this is not what you are after please supply more details of your requirement.

    Hi
    I am having a bubble chart with 2 or more series. where itemRenderer could be triangle,Cross or Circle. Now i need to display the label on the radius of item.
    Any help is heartly welcome.

    Thanks John, that link was very helpful.
    Shame you can't seem to get the X & Y values for a normal Line chart though. However having the series name available makes such a difference

  • Bubble Chart drill down issues

    I have a filter and a bubble chat with 7 series. The chart is showing up bubbles with different size and colors as per the settings when I chnage the filter
    The problem is with drill down
    I want to drill down to a Bar chart when I click on bubbles. Each bubble click will drill down data into that bar charchart as a pop up. I know how to do it as I have done it in the past with other components.
    But when I use drill down with bubble chart, I have to assign separate destination area for each series which makes it difficult to drill down into a chart. What i want is the bubbles to drill down data into a single row so that I can map the Y-axis of chart component to that row and X axis as fixed labels. But I am not able to do that. Moreover once inserted there is no way to clear the destination cells.
    However if I use data in range options in bubble chart then I can use drill down as I get only one series in that case. But that method also has limitations.
    1. I am not able to display series name on the bubbles. It doesn't make any sense to show bubbles without any labels.
    2. All bubbles are of same color.
    Is it possible to overcome above two limitations when using data in range option?
    Thanks

    Hi Tarun,
    as a workaround you could define a special area as mapping area for the X-Y-chart.
    This area is filled via excel formulas from the bubble chart drill down destinations. You can concatenate the values from the drill down target areas, like "=A4&A5" etc. Make sure to clear all cells except the actual drill down target cells.
    Hope this helps,
    best regards
