Hello,
I'm trying to group categories in the treemap into bigger categories. I was wondering if that is possible. The below screenshot is what I have right now and I want it to look like this second screenshot.
Thanks
@abhi87 only way is to create another column and group road type together, for example:
New Column =
SWITCH ( TRUE(),
Table[RoadType] IN { "A", "B", "C" }, "Big Roads",
Table[RoadType] IN { "X", "Y", "Z" }, "City Roads",
Table[RoadType] IN { "M", "P }, "Local Roads",
"Small Roads"
)
And use this new column in your visual, you can tweak the logic as you see fit.
