Hello all,
I'd love to be using an Azure map, but unfortunately I don't have a shapefile of UK postcode areas, so I have fallen back on ArcGIS which has postcode areas available as a ready-made reference layer. However, I just can't work out this one simple thing - how to change the colour! It has come out blue, and I can't see a way to change that. Any ideas?
Kind regards,
Sophia
Hi @s--turn
To change the color of a map layer in ArcGIS for Power BI, you may need to customize the map's symbol system.
Find the layer whose color you want to change, click More Options, and then select Symbol System from the drop-down menu. This opens the Symbol System pane.
In the Symbol System pane, you will see options for changing the style themes, symbols, and colors used to represent locations on the map.
