How to add two data fields to a shape map

I need to create a shape map that has a legend based on one metric and shows additional stripes (or icon) on the state for another metric.  I tried to use a different map visual, but I need the projection to be Albers USA.  In the example below, I would like the states that have answered "Yes" in [District Required to Publish] to keep the background legend color, but have diagonal stripes fill the state shape as well.  Is there any way to do this in Power BI?

  • ttibbitts , In shape, do not use color saturation, just use Fill color - Color and use a measure for conditional formatting

     

    if(Max(Table[Distinct Required to publish]) = "Yes", "Green", "Red")

     

    Use fx and field value option

     

    How to do conditional formatting by measure and apply it on pie?

      Your solution makes a different color for each combination of [State Knowledge of District Curriculum] and [District Required to Publish].  I don't want that.  I want only the three colors that differentiate [State Knowledge of District Curriculum] on the map plus a way to show which states have answered 'Yes' to [District Required to Publish] (besides adding it to the tooltip).

       

      For instance, Texas has [State Knowledge of District Curriculum] = 'Curriculum is reported to the state' and [District Required to Publish] = 'Yes', so it should be the lighter blue with stripes. Ohio has [State Knowledge of District Curriculum] = 'Curriculum is reported to the state' and [District Required to Publish] = 'No', so it should be the lighter blue with no stripes.  Does that make sense?

       

      Any help is deeply appreciated!
