Field Paramters to toggle between measures. works in the bar chart but shows incorrectly in shape ma

i hve added some averages to Field Parameters so I can use them in a map to toggle between all the averages

I add the Parameters as a slicer

I add a bar chart and put int District and thwe Parameter

 

Then a Shapemap with the specific Shape file behind it and then District and the Paramter.

 

it works great in the bar chart. however. all the values are massively out in the shape map.

got example District 1 Bar chart 40,588.56 Shape map the same district 12,582.67

 

I cant get to the bottom of this. Its exactly the same data in both. Why would the Shapmap be showing such lower values? Im very confused

 

Edited: Just did a test and added another Shape Map and Added the average from the measure. Not the field parameter list and its doing the same thing. its way smapper than the values in the bar chart. So its nothing to do with the field parameters. The Shapemap is showing different averages. really confusing. I have no clue what to do about this at the moment

Hello @DebbieE ,

 

are you using the same field in the bar chart and the shape map, in your case I guess the same location field?
