Excel ScatterPlots
I am graphing data points in a scatter plot. Some of the data points
are repeats throughout the data set. Is there any way to make the size of the dots (data points on the graph) that I am using depend upon the number of same data points I have in my data set? I want the graph to be able to reflect that some points are repeated many times, not just a single point like all the others. Thanks! |

If you're willing to use a macro, the procedure below will flag any
duplicates. Copy the macro into a standard module. Click on the XY chart and run the macro. Sub ShowXYDuplicatePoints() Application.ScreenUpdating = False Dim Cht As Chart Dim Srs As Series Dim Pt As Points Dim nPts As Long, iPt As Long Dim Test As Variant Dim UniqueValues As New Collection Set Cht = ActiveChart For Each Srs In Cht.SeriesCollection With Srs nPts = .Points.Count For iPt = 1 To nPts Test = Srs.XValues(iPt) & Srs.Values(iPt) UniqueValues.Add Acct, CStr(Test) On Error GoTo ErrHandler: If iPt + 1 nPts Then ActiveChart.Deselect Exit Sub End If Label1: Next End With Next Srs ErrHandler: Srs.Points(iPt).MarkerSize = 10 Srs.Points(iPt).MarkerBackgroundColorIndex = 3 Srs.Points(iPt).MarkerForegroundColorIndex = 3 If iPt + 1 nPts Then ActiveChart.Deselect Exit Sub End If Resume Label1: End Sub -- John Mansfield http://cellmatrix.net " wrote: I am graphing data points in a scatter plot.
