Automating bubble chart colours
Does anyone know if the colour of a bubble within a chart can be
conditionally formatted through reference to a cell within the spreadsheet ? I want the colour of each bubble within the chart to based on the result of a calculation within the spreadsheet. Currently the cells containing the calculation are conditionally formatted to give a red, amber, green result and I want to link the colour of the conditionally formatted cells to the colour of the associate bubble. (At the moment I update the bubbles manually) |

Automating bubble chart colours
Hi,
The normal work around for making a charts formatting conditional is to use multiple series. Then via formula only plot those points (bubble/columns/markers/bars) that are valid. See Jon's page for examples. http://peltiertech.com/Excel/Charts/...nalChart1.html Cheers Andy Vdubboy wrote: Does anyone know if the colour of a bubble within a chart can be conditionally formatted through reference to a cell within the spreadsheet ?
