Map County Colors
I'm new to Power BI being an extensive Tableau user. I took some comprehensive Power BI training but still get bogged down with the most basic of charting features. The good news is I have the data modeling functions down 😀.
In the image below I cannot seem to color the counties in the area map even though the color legend is recognizing them.. What am I missing?
I can send the workbook file as it is public data but not sure how. I don't see a file attachment link. Can someone advise? This should be simple. Thanks!
