See below. I would love to be able to add labels to these balloons. Is this possible? I know you can click and view card info on the right but would like to show the business ranking number in this view. Thanks!

Hi @Mark Colonnese

Welcome to the Atlassian community.

Currently, Jira Product Discovery does not support direct text labels or data overlays (such as your business ranking number) within the bubbles in the Matrix view. The view is intended to maintain a clean visualization, with detailed information available in the side panel when a bubble is selected.

You could inform your stakeholders about the ranking:

  • Utilize Tooltips: While you can’t see the number at a glance, hovering over any bubble will instantly show the Idea title and the specific values for your X and Y axes.

  • Color Coding: Use the 'Color' setting (in the display settings) to assign your 'Business Ranking' or 'Priority' field to a color scale. This enables viewers to visually distinguish 'high-rank' from 'low-rank' bubbles without clicking.

  • The List View Alternative: If the exact ranking number is critical for a presentation, I recommend creating a saved List View filtered for these same ideas. You can then toggle between the Matrix (for "big picture" impact) and the List (for "granular" priority) during your meeting.

I hope this helps!
