Custom Map Creating


User (Legacy)

Recommended Posts

I am using the trial version of Chartfx Map.

To basically understand what it takes to make a Custom Map, I took the "IL

Zips.svg" opened it up in Adobe Illustrator 10, made some slight changes in

the Map and saved it again as an SVG ( "IL Zips2.svg" )by following the

instruction that you have in the help file.

When I try to bind the Chartfx map control i get the following an error.

Invalid property value.

Prefixes beginning with "xml" (regardless of whether the characters are

uppercase, lowercase, or some combination thereof) are reserved for use by

XML.

What is wrong? I do not have Adobe Illustrator 9. (I hope ver 10. works?)

Dear Mr. Bagdadi,

This is a known issue with ChartFX Maps and the problem has been tackled

already.

It will be available in the next service pack!

As a temporary workaround, you can manually remove the offending lines from

the resulting SVG. In the SVG header you will see a few lines with the

prefix xml: and a variable that is later used in the SVG tag. Just remove

such lines and your modified SVG will work. You may want to compare the

headers of one of the original SVG provided with Chart FX Maps and the SVG

saved by Illustrator 10.
