Data labels in a filled map

Hi,

 

I need to create a filled map with the state name and data label displayed on the map. 

This is what I have right now, but I need the lables in there.

For example I need the state MN to say: Minnesota 43%

Is there a way to show the data label ont he actual map instead of just a tooltip?

 

Thanks!

Hi @kldinndorf 

You can try the ARC GIS map, it can display the data label on the map.

Hi @kldinndorf 

How to display country and data label, and round it?

You can create a measure.

e.g 

Measure=SELECTEDVALUE('Table'[Country])&ROUND(CALCULATE(SUM(...)),2)

Then set the measure as the label.

Hello, thank you for that solution. I need to display country name and the data label. Is there a way to get both of these? Right now I can just do either or.Capture.JPG

I also cannot figure out how to round the data points. I have them set to only 2 decimal places in PowerBI, but once they are in the ArcGIS map tCapture.JPGhey list a bunch of decimal places

Is there a way to display country name and data labels at the same time?
