I was hoping I could get some guidance on working with multiple series in a map. The problem I am trying to tackle is I have an svg file with a couple states broken out by counties (let's say NY and NJ). I want to color the NY counties with one set of conditional attributes and NJ counties with another set of conditional attributes.
Looking through the forums, it seems that I will want to use the Series property to achieve this. Only problem is, I haven't been able to figure out how to get this to work. I see that the conditional attributes has a Series property on it, so I am assuming it should be possible. Here is my setup:
Datasource is an ADO datatable with 3 columns - KeyLabelColumn, ValueColumn, SeriesColumn (I assume I need this series column to differentiate between the 2 states).Let's say I have a data table called "dt" populated with the following data (this is 1 datatable that has data for both states):
When something like this is run, I get the sections on both states colored as the same color. I seem to be missing something that is assigning the series data to the map. Any help out there? If this isn't clear, I can try to explain it a little better. Thanks in advance for your help!

Hello all!
I was hoping I could get some guidance on working with multiple series in a map. The problem I am trying to tackle is I have an svg file with a couple states broken out by counties (let's say NY and NJ). I want to color the NY counties with one set of conditional attributes and NJ counties with another set of conditional attributes.

Key Label, Value, Series
NY001, 20, 1NY002, 102, 1NJ001, 300, 2NJ003, 70, 2
I am trying to create the map like this:
Map m = new Map(); m.DataSource = dt;m.DataType[0] = SoftwareFX.ChartFX.DataType.Label;m.DataType[1] = SoftwareFX.ChartFX.DataType.Value;m.DataType[2] = SoftwareFX.ChartFX.DataType.Series;
m.ConditionalAttributes[0].Series = 1;m.ConditionalAttributes[0].Color = Color.Azure;m.ConditionalAttributes[0].Condition.To = 100;m.ConditionalAttributes[0].Legend = "NY Data";m.ConditionalAttributes[1].Series = 2;m.ConditionalAttributes[1].Color = Color.Black;m.ConditionalAttributes[1].Condition.To = 290;m.ConditionalAttributes[1].Legend = "NJ Data";
When something like this is run, I get the sections on both states colored as the same color. I seem to be missing something that is assigning the series data to the map. Any help out there? If this isn't clear, I can try to explain it a little better. Thanks in advance for your help!
