Display data on map


User (Legacy)

Recommended Posts

Justin,

Do you want to set a state a specific color? Because our documentation

specifically mentions this.

Or am I to understand that you have the correct states colored correctly but

you also want to display the data value itself somewhere on the region?

That is a very interesting idea.

It was available in Maps 6.0 but it looks as though it got left out for

version 6.2.

What used to be available is the data value in place of the State name.

So instead of "TX" you will see "45".

Please let me know what you are looking for?

If that is exactly what you want, I will do it, but you will need contact

support at softwarefx dot com and mention my name Charles.

Ask them how to get a hotfix. It will be ready either tomorrow or the day

after.

color is fine -

Using the temperature example from the maps video on the website, i would

like to see the temperature value in some vicinity of the state label, not

necessarily in its place.

So to use your example, i would want to see "45" in texas not necessarily in

place of "TX" though. I figured this would be like the pointlabel property

or something. I'm kind of suprised you can't do it actually.

What used to be available was that using the PointLabelMask property of the 

map

we replaced "TX" with "45"

like this

map.PointLabelMask = "%v";

The %v shows the value but you could easily do this

map.PointLabelMask = "%l\r\n%v";

Where it will show TX and underneath it the 45

Will that work?
