Editing Chart Types of Class 3

Chart Types

The portfolio and quadrant chart types have class 3.

Structure of the Data Provider for a Portfolio

You build the underlying table for a portfolio as follows:

The first data column contains the values to be entered on the X axis.
The second data column contains the values to be entered on the Y axis.
The third data column is relevant for the bubble size.
You can add further pairs of data columns to the table. The first data column of a pair always contains the Y values and the second data column the bubble size.

The X value of a data point is always defined from the first data column. The Y value of a data point is defined from the second, fourth, etc. data column, depending on the data column to which the data point belongs. The X and Y values together give you the center of the bubble.

Structure of the Data Provider for a Quadrant

A quadrant simply relates two data points to each other. The first data point is displayed as a cross. The second data point is displayed as a point and arranged with respect to the cross. Since only two data points are required, the underlying table should only have two rows.

The first data column contains the values to be entered on the X axis.
The second data column contains the values to be entered on the Y axis.

If the table contains more than two rows, the additional rows are ignored when the table is converted into a chart.

Portfolio Example

The following graphic shows a data provider that is used as the basis for a portfolio.
