Identifying Visual Type in Power BI Sample - no indication
Hello, this is my first post here, so I am hoping this is the correct forum thread.
In the Regional Sales Sample available from Microsft's sample reports (from this: https://app.powerbi.com/learn)
When downloaded as a .pbix file to open on Power BI Desktop, most of the visuals, when clicked, I can identify what the visual is. For the map titled Forecast by Location, there is no visible visualization highlighted.
It doesn't indicate that it is a Bing or ArcGIS map, and it's simplicity would be nice for my particular needs. Does anyone know what this visual is built from?
Hi SBusheyDewberry,
This is the shape map. It's a core visual that been in public preview for a very long time and will work in your report, however it has to be enabled in your Desktop settings to be accessible/inspectable.
The instructions here should help you get started with this. Good luck!
