Icon Map Capabilities and Guide

Thanks James

Hi James,

Me again. Thanks again for the repsonse above. It obviously helped me sort out being able to include both images (to replace the map dots) and polygons( to show boundaries). However, not I have a slightly more complex issue. 

I have every location by minute of a vehicle for a day. Since this results in so many datapoints (a lot of them on top of each other), I've created a slicer the user can use to filter down to 15 minutes segments. It does that just fine. However, now the issue is that the polygons go away since they aren't part of the filter context for that selected 15 minute time period. The workaround I'm using is just replicating a row for each polygon for every 15 minute period. This works but obviously won't scale very well.

Hopefully my rambling made at least a little sense. Thoughts? Or is there more info I could provide?

Is there an option to show a circle over a polygon with related info (size/color)?

Thanks in advance

I am also trying to get this working with a WKT linestring and it appears to ignore the Zoom settings I have applied.  

I can select features in the map and cross filter the matching table which is nice but it would be even better if users could work from the table to the map

Hi djurecic 

I'll sort this out for you, but will likely be a code change to Icon Map. It'll get released here before it goes to app source: https://icon-map.com/downloads.html

Thanks

James

Hi djurekcicK2,

I'm newish as well to Icon Map, but I know James is a busy guy so I'll take a stab at answering your question and hopefully come off at least halfway intelligent. And sorry if I state some obvious things you may already know. But I believe setting the Fill Color to transparent can be achieved by using the Fill Transparency feature. You would need to create a DAX formula that uses some logic that says something along the lines of, 'If value blank, then 100, else 0. This would make all the shapes with no values be completely transparent, while preserving the fill for the shapes that have values.

You would want to select Format Style as Field Value and then populate the 'What field should we base this on?' with your measure.

Let me know if this helps.

Hi djurecic 

You could create a measure as follows:

Transparent = "#00000000"

The first 6 digits specify the color - in RGB format, the final two digits represent the opacity.

Use expression based formatting ("fx" button) to select your measure for the fill color. This should then show your GeoJSON shapes completely transparent.
