Bubble Chart Reports

Avatar

Level 4

When values of bubbles are close to each other, bubbles overlap in the chart and the text over the bubble does not show clearly; it shows mixed with the text of the other bubbles under or over it and it is not possible to distinguish between the multiple overlays. Is there a way to fix that?

Yeah, I tend to avoid bubble charts for this reason - when you have too much data, or any overlapping data, the UI isn't the best. I stick to bar charts (most often with an additional stacked or side-by-side grouping).

If this helped you, please mark correct to help others : )

Hi @Farzaneh,

 

Harrumph. Although this older Bubble Chart post was mangled when it was converted from the previous one.workfront.com support site to Adobe Experience League, and I am unable to edit it to its original readable state (tagging @jon_chen in case he can Let Me In to do so), the punchline is this Bubble Chart video, which uses a combination of a priority based Y-Axis (creating "offsets"), user specified filters (to focus on subsets of data) and the dynamic legend toggling (to reduce the clutter on the fly).

Hi @Doug_Den_Hoed__AtAppStore Happy to help here and thanks for mentioning me. To confirm - are you not able to edit your own comment on the question you linked?

 

If not, I'm happy to reformat it for you if you let me know what it should look like instead.

Ah! Thanks @jon_chen,

 

Yes it was, but I tried again just now and was able to edit it, so all good now!

Doug
