Hi Blithering,

 

I'm afraid you missed something. The legend works like Group by. What you want should be grouping the the area first and then splitting them. But you reverse the steps.

You can see how legend works in the following two examples. You can check them out in this file: https://1drv.ms/u/s!ArTqPk2pu-BkgUVEN2aeVA9fi5FC.

1. The column of ESP is split into four part by legend.

Hi v-jiascu-msft,

 

Many thanks for your suggestion. I think this doesn't solve the issue that on the map itslef, the colour saturation doesn't vary within a given region. In your example - LUX (Luxembourg) and HUN (Hungary) should have different saturations of red but it looks to me like they are the same shade of red.

 

Sorry to be a pain!
