Create a Bubble Chart with Multiple Series of Data

  • Ask kids if they like bubbles and most likely you'll get a resounding "YES!" Heck even some adults like bubbles. I think it has something to do with the shiny curves and the airiness of these spherical entities. So when you have the chance to add more bubbles to your Excel bubble chart why not? Think of it as a fancy X Y scatter chart with similar variables that you'll plot with the exception of the value that affect the size. The techniques used to create a bubble chart can also be used to make a perceptual map for those of you marketers out there. If you wanted to create motion or an animated bubble chart go to • Bring Your Data to Lif... . This is similar to the Hans Rosling TED talk he did and what you'll see on the gapminder website.
    Anyways back to the bubbles...it's actually not that hard to add more more series of data to your chart. But be careful of adding too many series (bubbles), because just like a washing machine overloaded with too much detergent, a bubble chart can be overloaded with too many bubble.

    I was struggling with the bubble sizes, and I realized that I didn't consider I should've put Z colum data as well.
    So useful clip, thx!

    Very helpful. Clearly explained and quick to get to the point. Following it proved to me that the feature does actually work. It helped me troubleshoot one of my charts. The x-axis was not working correctly and would show up as data point number rather than the x value. It turns out that Excel reverts to point number on the x-axis if there are any non-numerical values in the column.

    how do we create the chart from a datasheet, in this example you have a group of nombres already , is it possible to pull the data from a list that is categorized instead of generating random data.

    Hello, is it possible to make bubbles interactive - for example to get the list of what a bubble refers to as you do when you click on a count in a pivot and it opens a new sheet with items that go into that count? Thanks a lot!

    Hey, do you know of any way we can add lines (connecting two points) in the bubble chart. It can be done with the x,y scatter chart. But i need the weight (which is only available in the bubble chart).

      Yes, you probably can. In Excel it's the power view feature seen the vid link below, but i think this could be translated to Power BI ruclips.net/video/5jWWA-lvfQM/видео.html

    • @inaspot
      @inaspot 5 лет назад

      Very easily understandable format for CXOs and BoD members. E.g., comparison of all the major restaurant franchisors in Americas comparing their revenue growth (Y axis), EBITA margin (X axis) and Revenue (bubble size). One can then easily see which are the big companies, highly profitable and growing fast.

    @leemelbourne3297 2 года назад

    What is the point of bubbles with no label to explain what they represent? This example is a little worthless, because each data point would typically have a name associated. This does not show how to represent that on your chart.

    • @DougHExcel
      @DougHExcel  2 года назад

      Lee Melbourne, that is very interesting...thanks for letting me know.
