MarkSize

Auto-generated from the config schema in the source — see the config guide for concepts. Provided by the marks plugin. View source.

Example usage#

{ mark: 'point', encoding: { y: 'score', size: 7 } }

{
  mark: 'link',
  encoding: { size: { field: 'score', scale: 'log', range: [1, 8] } },
}

A mark's size in px, as color is its color: a point's diameter, a rule's thickness or a link's stroke. A number is the constant every instance takes, and lands in value; a string is a feature field, and lands in field, which a link reads through a linear or log scale into a px range, so a score becomes a width the way a ramp makes it a color.

Config slots#

Slot types (fileLocation, frozen, ...) are explained in the config slot types reference. Slots a base configuration contributes are listed here too, so this table is the whole surface.
