Yes we can !

Robert just sent me an excellent example of heatmap use, based on a NY Times infographic and a recent post on Juice Analytics.

Juice Analytics gave up trying with Excel, but Robert said "Yes we can" et voilĂ  !


The NY Times chart.


Robert's replica with Sparklines for XL heatMap function.

The file is available for download here.

Note : Robert added one line in the code to make the circles transparent, so the text behind could be seen.

Robert is also contribuiting to Chandoo's excellent blog Pointy Haired Dilbert.

Hi there.... I have been trying various Excel implementations of sparklines and found this blog and your development work very interesting. I downloaded the sample Airlines dashboard to review. I am having a problem where Excel has added a 'Sparkline' menu and I cannot seem to remove it by clicking on 'Remove Sparklines' options. This doesn't even show up in the add-in list. Can you suggest a way to fix this?

Thanks,
Kunal
