I'm trying to represent a few series as a Bubble Chart, but I don't know how to represent the bubbles in different X positions when they belong to the same category. Let's take the following example
When the chart is represented in bars or columns, there is no overlapping, but when i choose bubbles, every bubble is drawn in the same position.
I want something like this:
How can I achieve this?? Here you can find the example:
chart: {
type: 'bubble',
plotBorderWidth: 1
},
xAxis: {
labels: {
overflow: 'justify'
},
lineColor: "#1E232A",
tickColor: "#1E232A",
type: "category"
},
series: [{
name: "BLUE",
data: [
{ y: 65, z: 13.8, name: 'Belgium' },
{ y: 32.9, z: 14.7, name: 'Germany' },
{ y: 11.5, z: 15.8, name: 'Finland' }
]
},
{
name: "BLACK",
data: [
{ y: 65, z: 44.8, name: 'Belgium' },
{ y: 32.9, z: 66.7, name: 'Germany' },
{ y: 11.5, z: 77.8, name: 'Finland' }
]
},
{
name: "GREEN",
data: [
{ y: 65, z: 54.8, name: 'Belgium' },
{ y: 32.9, z: 56.7, name: 'Germany' },
{ y: 11.5, z: 37.8, name: 'Finland' }
]
}]
As far as I can see/find there is no direct supported way to do this. The closest I think you can come is either specify x
values for each point, or for each series with pointPlacement
. I made an example using the pointPlacement
:
series: [{
name: "BLUE",
pointPlacement: -0.25, //added this
data: [
{ y: 65, z: 13.8, name: 'Belgium' },
{ y: 32.9, z: 14.7, name: 'Germany' },
{ y: 11.5, z: 15.8, name: 'Finland' }
]
},
{
name: "BLACK",
data: [
{ y: 65, z: 44.8, name: 'Belgium' },
{ y: 32.9, z: 66.7, name: 'Germany' },
{ y: 11.5, z: 77.8, name: 'Finland' }
]
},
{
name: "GREEN",
pointPlacement: 0.25, //added this
data: [
{ y: 65, z: 54.8, name: 'Belgium' },
{ y: 32.9, z: 56.7, name: 'Germany' },
{ y: 11.5, z: 37.8, name: 'Finland' }
]
}]
The above will look like this:
