4.3.6 Display of circles with variable sizes (1)

The display of circles with variable sizes is very similar to the process above:

- 1. You have a column in your source table, which indicates the size of each pie chart, as shown in the sample table in Chapter 4.3.4 as the rightmost column. You can call this column ‘Size’ or similar.

- 2. Have also a column with 1s (cell in each row with value 1). You can call this column ‘Dummy’ or similar (see Excel table in Annex 15.2 for an example).

- 3. You proceed as explained in Chapter 4.3.4:
From the Project manager window: Style > Labels > Option > Data chart >

(If the attribute file (XLS) has not been loaded yet: Choose file window: Select XLS file > Open > Choose link column window: ID > OK) >

> Select 'Dummy' (as defined before) > Data chart > Pie chart > Size of chart: You
must enter ‘Size’ (i.e. the column name, as defined before) > OK.

Examples at end of Annex 15.1 and Annex 15.2.
