Hi I am creating a bubble graph where in the bubble sizes are adjusted against the data by default. But I would like to show the bubbles bigger enough to have a clarity. Can anyone help me out in this.

Thanks,
Srinivasan M

What have you tried?

Have you considered multiplying the Z values by a constant?

Hi JIM,
Thanks for the reply,below is the code which I tried with. The bubbles are very small, the user wants the bigger bubble shown by the below code should be the smallest bubble size and he wants the biggest bubble to be of greater size.


Can you pls help me in this.. I tried multiplying by constant.. Still no luck.

Jim gave you a solution above. Have you even bothered to try it? If you don't at least try then it is unlikely that you would get any further.

Short of writing the code for you (there would be a charge), you need nothing else .... apart from maybe a training course, not just in WebFOCUS but maybe data handling, logic, maths?

Tony.. I tried and only then I pasted the code.I missed the compute part of the code
I tried multiplying the Z values.but the bubble size remains the same.

Ok, with your second code you can see why I thought that you hadn't tried it.

I noticed that in your third code you tried a larger VAXIS and HAXIS. All that will do is give you a larger "canvas".

It may be that the bubbles are the max you can get, I don't know - perhaps someone who does use bubble graphs could assist. You do have the default set to the max. so that could be a pointer? Perhaps contacting IB tech support to see if you can get the bubble sizes larger would be best?

Remember that IB Tech Support are there if you have the requisite maintenance.

Thanks Tony,

I too think the same even after setter the marker size to max . Am getting the bubble size small. I want to makemyself comfortable that I tried the max, before I could go to IBI.. That is why I posted this.. Anyway thanks for the reply
