  • Struggling here — can anyone help?
    I’m trying to build a scatter plot to visualize risk data. My table has the following columns:

    • RISK ID
    • PROBABILITY (1 to 5)
    • IMPACT (1 to 5)
    • CRITICALITY (calculated as PROBABILITY × IMPACT)

    What I’m trying to achieve:

    • X-axis: PROBABILITY
    • Y-axis: IMPACT
    • Bubble size: CRITICALITY (ideally), or at least same-size bubbles representing each RISK ID

    I’ve been banging my head on this without success. Is there a Smartsheet wizard out there who’s figured this out — or a workaround to achieve something similar?

    Thanks in advance!

    • No chart type supports X-Y plotting from two different columns.
    • No support for variable marker (bubble) size.
    • All charts in Smartsheet are category-based (bar, line, pie, etc.), not data point-based.
