Hi Everyone!

 

I tried mjfulke method to create a power bi map for Portugal (only the continent for now), but when i import the resulting map into power bi, i noticed that our district reegions were not able to be rendered in power bi desktop witch was a major disapointment :( .

Is there something else i have to do in order to be able to have the regions available in the continent to assign data specific to each district/region, with this method you explained ?

 

Thank you! :)

    We would like to display labels next to points/arcs/polygons in the Shape Map visualization. We would like these labels to be continuously displayed on the map, i.e. not as tooltips.

     

    The idea is to use these labels for street names on a Shape Map that's displaying a small part of a city.

     

    Is this technically feasible? If so, how?
