Hi,
I have a world map with several of "Text objects" representing (for the purpose of this example) sales values within areas.
I would now like to change the size of these picture objects depending on the ranking of the values in the table - so the larger the sales figures are, the larger the picture is.
Can you do this with code? Play with the width and length of the object?
Table Example:
---------------------------
Name, Value
A, 200
B, 100
C, 50
Object for "A" should be twice as large as for B, and B twice as large as C.
Actually the exact sizing is not the most important, but I would like to create the effect that the larger the value the larger the area. So it could be static with an additional X factor, if that makes any sense.
I am currently on personal and cant share anyting (I suppose?).
Tobbe,
you can use VBScript to play with any attributes of the text object, including size, but keep in mind that those macros can only work in the Developer tool, maybe in IE Plugin, but certainly not in AJAX.
As an alternative, I'd recommend a scatter chart with the size of the bubble represented by sales, overlayed on top of the map.

Thanks alot Oleg, how cool is that - a scatter chart does it all for me! Almost a shamed right now for how easy that was 😉
