Display another visualization in the Map Labels

Hello All,

 

We should be able to control what shows up in the Map Labels when you hover over a location in both maps and filled maps.

Ability to show / hide fields would be nice too - for example the end user may not care or even get confused by seeing the Latitude and Longitude of a location. We need to also be able to display another visualization in the map label like a table or matrix with the relevant data for the location the user is hovering over with the mouse.

 

Please see - http://www.nytimes.com/elections/2016/national-results-map - perfect example - when you hover over a county you get a table with fields - we need something like this!

 

If anyone likes this idea please add your support at the link below so we can hopefully get the PBI Team behind it as well.

Hello @Sean, I love your idea. You are right, will be very nice if we can have the ability to show or hide field in our Map labels when we hover over some location, I really hope Power BI team can improve that.
