I want to change the "Events" key shape from circle to square but rather do so via angular-nvd3 or nvd3 api instead of selecting using d3 and changing it after the chart renders..
so far couldn't find how to do it

Alignment and Colors of Data Point Outliers of Box Plot

Is it possible to align the data points and outliers of box plot in one straight line like in center of box plot?
Additionally, can I color the data points?
The current and the desired screen shot are attached with it.
You can use
.dataWidthPortion(0)
to not spread the points out at all. Documentation.
General advice on changing the color or style of anything, if there is no accessor for it:
Look for the chart in the chart selectors wiki, or if it's not there, inspect the item you want to change in the developer tools and find out what SVG tag and CSS class the item has. In this case, it's circle.data
Add a pretransition handler which selects the items you want, and changes them:
var cc = d3.scaleOrdinal().range(d3.schemeDark2);
bp02.on('pretransition', chart => {
chart.selectAll('circle.data').attr('fill', function(d) {
const boxDatum = d3.select(this.parentNode).datum();
return cc(boxDatum.value[d]);
})
});
In this case, we're creating an ordinal scale to map the available data to the colors in a color scheme.
The interesting question is here is what data to bind to the color of the dots, and how to get that data.
A box plot's data consists of an array of key/value pairs where each value is a Y value. When the box plot draws it will bind each circle.dot element to the index of the data in the array.
So we need to get the array that is bound to the box. Luckily d3.select(this.parentNode).datum() will give us the key/value pair for the box.
For this example, we are encoding the color based on the Y value, which we get by looking inside boxDatum.value. You don't specify how you want the dots colored but this shows the data that is available.

Invert nvd3.js legend click function

So, in nvd3 charts, clicking on a legend entry basically filters that out of the chart window (for instance in the case of area charts). I want to invert this functionality..i.e. show the particular chart when its corresponding legend is shown and hide all the others...is there a way to do it?
It is similar to what happens when user hits the chart itself (i.e. only the one that is clicked is expanded and rest of the streams hide).
I am referring to this example: http://nvd3.org/ghpages/stackedArea.html
There's a radioButtonMode that should do exactly what you want. You should be able to set this on the chart, i.e.
chart.radioButtonMode(true);

d3 bar chart does not extend to full width of svg

I have a bar chart (http://tributary.io/inlet/4720197) that plots a dataset with a large number of points that I can't get to fill the entire width of the svg. I had the same issue with a line chart and was able to resolve by using rangePoints.
I've been attempting something similar with this chart but can't quite get the right combination (it's using two scales for the grouping) and am unclear how to get the side-by-side bars that I previously accomplished with rangeBand() given that function does not exist with rangePoints. What am I missing?

Plot a Pie figure inside a every Bubble of a Bubble Chart using Excel?

-Office for Mac. I have the following Bubble chart :
I would like to insert a small Pie figure inside each of these bubbles to represent a specific value. How is this possible through Excel ?
The basic method you can use is to create pie charts for each bubble, modify the formatting of the pie charts to eliminate everything but the pies from view (turn off borders, any text labeling, backgrounds, etc.), and resize and overlay the pies over the corresponding bubble. After you've done all the bubbles, you may want to group all the elements together to avoid inadvertent misalignment of the overlays.

How to Change Legend Type in Excel?

I have a line chart, where the chart legend also in forms of line. Is there a way I can change the legend type from colored line to colored circle or square?
Figure like this. http://www.nevron.com/gallery/FullGalleries/chartActiveX/stackline/images/StackLine1.png
I don't think you can use this method to get circles, but if you want to get squares, you can change the chart to a 3-D line chart, then right-click the chart area and select '3-D Rotation'. Change everything in the Rotation section of the menu to as close to 0 as you can get it. This will make your chart show up as a regular line chart while the legend shows little cubes. After you've done that, though, you'll probably have to change the axis settings. In my experience, 3D charts tend to show too many gridlines.
