Default Problem with BUBBLE CHART scale and legend


Lately I am working with Bubble Charts and I noticed two problems that I
cannot solve.

(1) Comparing multiple Bubble Charts that have dissimilar bubble size
data is not possible. The problem is that if you use the same size
multiplier, the bubbles in each chart have the same size, despite the
difference in bubble size values. For example the bubble sizes of the
next 2 tables are similar:
X1: 2, 3, 4, 5; Y1: 4, 3, 2, 1; Bubble1: 4, 3, 2, 1
X2: 2, 3, 4, 5; Y2: 4, 3, 2, 1; Bubble2: 0.4, 0.3, 0.2, 0.1
Of course there are some ways to overcome this problem, but they cause
a lot extra work or are not dynamic. I am looking for a Macro or VBA
procedure that generates bubble sizes in multiple charts that are sized
according to the same bubble size scale.

(2) I also noticed that Bubble Charts in Excel don’t have a proper
legend: they only inform about the third dimension (e.g. revenues). I
am looking for a legend that informs the user about the bubble sizes
and their values or ranges. A fourth dimensions can even be included in
the charts: ‘colour of the bubbles’. Also for this matter I would like
to have a clear legend. My question: is there any macro or VBA
procedure for the bubble legend?
Hopefully, someone can help me: you will help me a lot!
