out-map: setting default values

[marco.shaw]

I'm testing something simple like:

PS C:\> gc country.csvCountry,PointsU.S.A.,20Canada,10

And using out-map:

[line wrapping might be an issue with this post]

PS C:\> import-csv country.csv|out-map -values Points -label Country -mapsource World\WorldCountries -conditionalAttributes_0_condition_from 1 -conditionalAttributes_0_condition_to 1000 -conditionalAttributes_0_Color Red -conditionalAttributes_0_Text "1 to 1000" -defaultAttributes_Color Gray

This gives me kind of what I want...  A default color to all the countries not in country.csv, *but*, I'd also want a corresponding entry in the legend box that perhaps says something like "No entries" associated with the color gray.

I tried this:

PS C:\> import-csv country.csv|out-map -values Points -label Country -mapsource World\WorldCountries -conditionalAttributes_0_condition_from 1 -conditionalAttributes_0_condition_to 1000 -conditionalAttributes_0_Color Red -conditionalAttributes_0_Text "1 to 1000" -defaultAttributes_Color Gray -conditionalAttributes_1_condition_from 0 -conditionalAttributes_1_condition_to 0 -conditionalAttributes_1_Color Gray -conditionalAttributes_1_Text "No entries"

But the thing is with the above...  If I mouse-over the "1 to 1000" category in the legeng, all the other entries remain Gray.  I want to be able to rollover the "1 to 1000" category, and have the default Gray change to a shade of white (like how the Red changes color if I mouse-over the "No entries" entry in the legend).

Can I do this?  I realize I could just add a "0" to every country in my country.csv file, but I'm lazy...

In our highlighting algorithm we only dim the elements that contain data. Your solution of passing dummy data (0) and applying a conditional attribute seems to be the only option at this time.

Thanks for replying so quickly.  I'm sure I can loop through all the countries.

FYI, we have been discussing internally whether to support the scenario you described as part of the standard behavior. Nothing has been decided yet, though.
