Title: Can we associate bubble in combination chart
Post by: inu on 09 Nov 2016 05:07:43 AM
Hi Team,

As my colleague (business analyst) asked me, that , can we represent a chart which can contain bar, line with bubble.

If so, please suggest me the steps to do so.


I appreciate the response.


Regards,
Inam

Short answer: No.

Long answer: Why would you do that? Scatterplots/bubble charts require 2 continuous value axes, whereas a line or bar chart's category axis which represents discrete values. Putting Bars or lines on a continuous category axis makes no sense, and neither does putting bubbles on a discrete category axis.
