Proportional area chart

Description

A Proportional Area Charts are used for comparing proportions (size, quantities, etc.) without the usage of scales. They are therefore only suitable to compare a small set of values, and usually should be combined with text annotations displaying the value [1, 2].

Example:

Pointers

• Ideally, you start prototyping in a scripting or notebook environment where you can iterate fast. installation instructions can be found here: https://plotly.net/#Installation
• Charts like this that are using baseline trace types to create a new chart type should only be implemented in the top-level Chart API. An example where this is already done is the Range chart that combines a set of differently styled line charts.

Plotly.NET のインストール手順を使用して、まずスクリプト環境またはノートブック環境でプロトタイプを作成します。Chart2D.fs の Bubble Chart と Range chart の例を読み、その後、バブルの位置指定を含む新しいチャートをトップレベルの Chart API に実装します。API がスケールなしでバブルのサイズによって値を比較する比例面積チャートを提供できれば完了です。
