Hi @Anonymous ,

Here are the steps you can follow:

1. Create measure.

Measure =
SWITCH(
    TRUE(),
    MAX('Table2'[Country])="USA","The amount in the USA has been relatively stable",
    MAX('Table2'[Country])="India","India took a big hit in 2018 but recovered slightly in 2019",
    MAX('Table2'[Country])="United Kingdom","The UK grew in 2018 compared to 2017 but then dropped dramatically in 2019")

2. Use Smart narrative visual objects.

3. In the dialog box that appears, write down the text first, and click +Value to find the corresponding measure

Select the country in the map to display the information of which country.

What set of data do they to be entered. Because we have following data - 

 

Country

Year

Currency

Amount

USA

2017

USD

1000000

India

2017

INR

25000000

United Kingdom

2017

GBP

500000

USA

2018

USD

900000

India

2018

INR

10000000

United Kingdom

2018

GBP

550000

USA

2019

USD

1100000

India

2019

INR

17500000

United Kingdom

2019

GBP

300000

 

And we needed to plot all 3 years of data so users could draw insights along the lines of:

 

“The amount in the USA has been relatively stable”

“India took a big hit in 2018 but recovered slightly in 2019”

“The UK grew in 2018 compared to 2017 but then dropped dramatically in 2019”

 

And the preference is to use Map visualization. Please help. Thanks in advance!
