Bubble HeatMap in JavaScript (ES5) HeatMap control

30 Jun 2022 / 10 minutes to read

Data points represent the data source values with gradient or fixed colors in the heat map. You can customize the appearance of these data points by changing the color and shape attributes.

The data points can be represented in color fill or bubble shape by defining the tileType property. By default, the data points are color filled with gradient or fixed and this depiction of data points is defined as rect in the tileType property.

The cell customizations and color mapping for rect tile type is defined in appearance and palette sections in detail.

Bubble attributes

The data points can be represented in the bubble along with its attributes by setting the tileType property to bubble.

In bubble heat map, you can display the data points with bubble size, bubble colors, and sector attributes of the bubble.

Bubble size

In this bubble heat map type, the size factor of the bubble is used to denote the data variations. The radius of the bubble varies according to data values.

By default, the bubble with small size denotes the data value with small magnitude and the larger bubble size denotes the data value with larger magnitude. This behavior can be inversed by using the isInversedBubbleSize property.

To render a bubble heat map with size series, set the bubbleType property to Size.

Combining size and color bubble attributes

In this bubble heat map type, you can bind the two data source fields to a single data point. Thereby, each data point represents the two data values with bubble size and bubble color attributes, where the bubble size denotes the magnitude of one data source field and the bubble color denotes the magnitude of another data source field.

To render a bubble heat map with size and color series, set the bubbleType property to SizeAndColor.
