Bubble

A common visualization type that extends from a Scatter chart. The bubble chart is a scatter chart with individual point sizes and/or colors. This way, the size or color of each point can represent a property of the data point.

For example, older measurements can have less opacity. Or, more impactful events may have larger point size, etc.

// Creation of a bubble series
const bubbleSeries = chart.addPointSeries()
    .appendSamples({
        xValues: [4, 2, 6],
        yValues: [5, 2, 8],
        sizes: [10, 25, 5]
    })
    .setDataMapping({ x: 'xValues', y: 'yValues', size: 'sizes' })
