Class Definition: BubbleChart

chartjs: BubbleChart

Bubble chart drawn by the Chart.js library.

Each dataset of a BubbleChart is a BubbleData object in its datasets property.

To view the BubbleChart object in your web browser, use its webserve () method. Alternatively, you can generate and/or save to a file the corresponding HTML code with the htmlstring () and htmlsave () methods and serve it online through a web server of your choice.

Each property is documented on its own, as in help BubbleChart.labels.

Source Code: BubbleChart

The BubbleChart class contains the following properties:

A character vector defining the name of the Chart in the generated html code.

A cell array containing one or more BarData objects corresponding to the data input.

A numeric vector or a cellstring array with the data labels defined in labels.

A cell array containing one or more Option and Plugin objects. Not used at the moment.

The BubbleChart class offers the following public methods:

BubbleChart: obj = BubbleChart (X, Y, R)

BubbleChart: obj = BubbleChart (…, Name, Value)

obj = BubbleChart (X, Y, R) returns a BubbleChart object, in which X and Y define the coordinates along the x-axis and y-axis, respectively, and R defines the radius for each element of the bubble chart.

  • X must be a nonempty NxP numeric matrix, where each column corresponds to a separate dataset and each row corresponds to an element of the bubble chart defining its position along the x-axis.
  • Y must be a nonempty NxP numeric matrix, where each column corresponds to a separate dataset and each row corresponds to an element of the bubble chart defining its position along the y-axis.
  • R must be a nonempty NxP numeric matrix, where each column corresponds to a separate dataset and each row corresponds to an element of the bubble chart defining its radius.

obj = BubbleChart (…, Name, Value) returns a BubbleChart object with the properties of each dataset specified by one or more Name, Value pair arguments. Name can be any property name of a BubbleData object and Value must correspond to the data type(s) and values accepted by that property. Type help BubbleData for more details on the available properties.

Specifically for the properties that accept a Color object as their input value, besides the Color object you may also parse to the BubbleChart constructor the same values accepted by the constructor of the Color object. However, if you choose to manually modify the BubbleChart’s properties using the dot notation syntax, then you must assign a Color object to the chosen property. Type help Color for more details on the available syntax.

For properties that accept scalar values, you can pass a vector of the same type with each element corresponding to a different dataset. For properties that accept vectors, you can pass a matrix of the same type with each row corresponding to a different dataset. Otherwise, the same property value will be assigned to all datasets available in data. For properties accepting a character vector, you need to pass a cellstring array for multiple datasets, whereas for properties that can take mixed types of scalar values (i.e. either boolean and character vectors), you need to pass a cell array with each element corresponding to a different dataset.
