A new feature that was included in the recently-released version 1.1 of the Deneb custom visual was the ability to use the current theme setup in a Power BI file. A bubble chart can be used to effectively illustrate this new feature, and I enclose a Deneb/Vega-Lite template for such a bubble chart.
This template illustrates a number of Deneb/Vega-Lite features, including:
- a title block setting additional display properties
- a single “circle” mark
- offsetting both the X and Y axes to create more room for the edge circles
- custom titles for both the X and Y axes
- circle size being reflective of the total sales for the selected product for the selected month
- circle colour being presented according to the current colour theme of the Power BI report (** new in Deneb v1.1)
- automatic legend generation by Deneb/Vega-Lite
- a custom tooltip showing the product, the month, and the total sales
The intent of this template is not to provide a finished visual, but rather to serve as a starting point for further custom visual development.
Also included is the sample PBIX using the Enterprise DNA Practice Dataset as a demo.
NOTE: This template is provided as-is for information purposes only, and its use is solely at the discretion of the end user; no responsibility is assumed by the author.
EDIT: resolved Deneb v1.1 template generation issue and uploaded new template version
