Hello,
I'm pretty new to PowerBI, any help is appreciated.
Background : I have a dataset of US population life expectancy and I'm using shape map becuase i need it like the albers USA projection.
Problem: I'm unable to mention state names over the states.
Thank you for helping in advance
Hi, @sandeepvigilant
Maybe try to change the format of State Name to Place

There is no option other than Text in the format field
Obviously that will not help. I am not sure if it is supported to add names on this shape map. If anyone has any suggestion please share
