Value Circle Graph

In this graph, planets are displayed as circles whose size is proportional to the radius of each planet.

Value Circle-

To make a value circle graph,

1.

Select a numeric attribute in the data cards or case table that you want to scale the circles by.

2.

Set the Icon Type to Value Circle.

Note: In this example, we've also put the attribute Orbit on the horizontal axis and fully separated it so that the planets are arranged according to their average distances from the sun. We added the planet names as labels by selecting Name in the data cards and then clicking the Label button in the upper plot toolbar. Finally, we used the Reposition tool on the lower plot toolbar to adjust the vertical positions of the circles so that labels or circles were not overlapping.
