    Hi James,

     

    I also use the Power Bi Map Box visual and there is no actual way of setting an specific size (height) to the items in the map. There always needs to be an element with the maximum height.

     

    As a workaround, you could add 2 dummy elements in the map, separated from the rest of the buildings, and then create a calculated column with numeric values for the sizes of the buildings (for example from 10 to 0). With this column you could set the maximum and minimum height to the dummy buildings (the separated ones) and set the height of the rest of the buildings with an intermediate value (for example 3).

     

    As a result, you would get 1 dummy building with maximum height, another one with minimum height, and the rest of them with the height you specified in the calculated column. You could also give a specific value to each building, but it isn't a very fun process when working with big maps.
