How to add bubble over Shape map

Hi everyone,

 

I need a shape map that shows dealers in bubble foam. I attached the image below for reference.

In above shape map the red and green bubble shows the dealers area with conditional formating. 

 

So, how could I show the bubble in shape map ?

Please Help

Hey,

 

not sure if I understand your question exactly, but maybe you want to consider the Icon-map visual: Icon Map (icon-map.com).

 

Please consider creating sample data, uploading the pbix to onedrive or dropbox, and sharing the link. Explain the expected result based on the sample data you provided.

 

Regards,

Tom

Hi @Rohan251996 ,

 

The shape chart is currently in preview, please carefully consider using it in a production environment.

 

Currently, shape map don't do what you describe.

Unlike the Map visual, Shape map doesn't show precise geographical locations of data points on a map. Instead, its main purpose is to compare regions on a map by coloring them differently.

Use Shape maps in Power BI Desktop (Preview)

 

This custom visual seems to fit the requirements you describe.

I tried to explore this option, but the sample PBIX file shows the error "INVALID JSON FILE" for all maps. When I checked the reviews, it appeared that the product had been dead since May 2020.
