General

This function provides an overview of versions per projects in a bubble graph.  What's a bubble graph? This graph adds an extra dimension to the graph.  In the example shown in figure 1 the size of the bubble is related to the "Actual stage cost".

    • Bubble area; select data which will be plotted as size of the bubble.
    • Bubble color; select data which will be plotted as the color of the bubble.
    • Show name labels in diagram; Bubbles with or without project names.
    • Show unused colors in legend;
    • Fixed bubble area; when not set the highest value for a bubble is also the largest (set) size of that bubble. When the boundaries are set, the size of a bubble will be small as the value is equal or less as the set minimum.  And the size of a bubble will be large (fixed size) as the value is equal or larger as the set maximum. In between the boundaries the size will be proportional to its value.
    • Save panel layout as preset;
    • Save chart to report queue; make this chart ready to be used in a report.
  • Hovering over a bubble (fig. 3): this will give some information of that bubble.
  • Selecting project from a bubble; by clicking on a project in a bubble.
