    Example

    The code below would display the following Chart:

     

    var workbook = Workbook.Create( ChartSample.ChartSampleOutputDirectory + @"AddCharts.xlsx" );
    
    // Gets the first Worksheet. A Workbook always contains at least 1 Worksheet.
    var worksheet = workbook.Worksheets[ 0 ];
    
    // Adds Values for Category.
    worksheet.Cells[ "B4" ].Value = 2020;
    worksheet.Cells[ "B5" ].Value = 2021;
    worksheet.Cells[ "B6" ].Value = 2022;
    worksheet.Cells[ "B7" ].Value = 2023;
    worksheet.Cells[ "B8" ].Value = 2024;
    
    // Adds Values for Series.
    worksheet.Cells[ "C4" ].Value = 20d;
    worksheet.Cells[ "C5" ].Value = 28d;
    worksheet.Cells[ "C6" ].Value = 33d;
    worksheet.Cells[ "C7" ].Value = 12d;
    worksheet.Cells[ "C8" ].Value = 45d;
    
    // Adds a BubbleChart with the generic Add method and set its SubType. The size of the Chart will be from Cell E4 to L18.
    var bubbleChart = worksheet.Charts.Add<BubbleChart>( "E4", "L18" );
    bubbleChart.SubType = BubbleChartSubType.Bubble3D;
    
    // Sets the Chart's Title.
    bubbleChart.Title.Text = "Profits";
    bubbleChart.Title.TextOptions.Font.Bold = true;
    
    // Sets the Legend.
    bubbleChart.Legend.Position = LegendPositionType.Right;
    
    // Sets the Category data(x values) for the BubbleChart : Cells B4 to B8.
    bubbleChart.CategoryData = CategoryData.FromCells( worksheet, "B4", "B8" );
    
    // Scales the Chart's bubble to 50%.
    bubbleChart.BubbleScale = 50;
    
    // Adds BubbleSeries to the BubbleChart (y values) by specifying fixed values and a range of Cells’ Adresses.
    var bubbleSeries1 = bubbleChart.SeriesCollection.AddFromValues<BubbleSeries>( 5d, 10d, 15d, 20d, 40d );
    bubbleSeries1.Name = "IBM";
    var bubbleSeries2 = bubbleChart.SeriesCollection.AddFromCells<BubbleSeries>( "C4", "C8" );
    bubbleSeries2.Name = "Apple";
    
    // Sets the sizes of the bubbles based on their value.
    var bubbleSeriesSize = new List<double>();
    bubbleSeries1.Values.Cast<double>().ToList().ForEach( value => bubbleSeriesSize.Add( value / 5 ) );
    bubbleSeries1.BubbleSizes = bubbleSeriesSize.ToArray();
    bubbleSeriesSize.Clear();
    bubbleSeries2.Values.Cast<double>().ToList().ForEach( value => bubbleSeriesSize.Add( value / 5 ) );        
    bubbleSeries2.BubbleSizes = bubbleSeriesSize.ToArray();
    
    // Shows the DataPoint Labels for the BubbleSeries and positions them.
    bubbleSeries1.DataPointLabels.ShowValue = true;
    bubbleSeries1.DataPointLabels.Position = PointDataPointLabelsPositionType.Right;
    bubbleSeries1.DataPointLabels.ShowBubbleSize = true;
    bubbleSeries2.DataPointLabels.ShowValue = true;
    bubbleSeries2.DataPointLabels.Position = PointDataPointLabelsPositionType.Right;
    bubbleSeries2.DataPointLabels.ShowBubbleSize = true;
    
    // Saves Workbook to disk.
    workbook.Save();
