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

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
