A bubble chart is not a very well known type of chart but can be very valuable in the business world.
It can be useful to evaluate the position of competing companies in the market considering two types of relevant factors, so managers can analyze and take the necessary actions to improve the positions of their companies.
This class provides a simple solution to generate bubble charts from few lines of code adding great value to applications of developers that understand its interest for businesses.

This class generates and displays images in the JPEG format that represent bubble charts.
It can be useful to show the positioning of subjects (such as companies, products, people, organizations, teams and so on) face to 2 qualities (classified according to a semantic scale) at time.
The width of the bubble allows to represent a third quality of the subject: this quality is relative to the other subjects.
An interesting use of this class is to create strategic marketing graphs in order to analyze the positioning of a company face to its competitors, taking two critical success factors at time.
