Map Legend
Sean,
OK, I tried this with the following data:
County,State,Division,Value
Madison,Ohio,Division1,10
Franklin,Ohio,Division2,20
Union,Ohio,Division3,30
Logan,Ohio,Division1,40
Marion,Ohio,Division2,50
Delaware,Ohio,Division3,60
I confirmed the behavior. Interestingly, if I only used "State", I got a little pie chart (and I mean little) but when clicking on division in the legend, it greyed out the other divisions parts of the pie and highlighted the one I clicked. Not sure if that is "by design" or a bug but I am seeing the same thing you are.
Thanks for trying it out and confirming!
I also encountered another issue when I substituted Division with Deadline in the Map Legend.
The Deadline field is Data Type: Date and Formatted: MM/dd/yyyy
However in the Map Legend it displays MM/dd/yyyy 12:00:00 AM - I tried every format but can't get rid of the time
In a table or a matrix or a slicer the Deadline field displays as intended MM/dd/yyyy

Nice one, so sounds like the map legend is not honoring the format setting, that's interesting to know!

I hope someone from the PBI team addresses this behavior because (or explains why it behaves this way)
When you click on an item in the Map Legend you would expect the appropriate items to get highlighted and only the rest greyed out
In this case ALL items on the map (including the selected) become greyed out which gives the false impression none are present

Make sure you submit this as a bug report, as well. You can do so in PBI Desktop by using the 'Send a frown' option in the File menu, and using the feedback menu in PBI Service.
The forums are a great avenue for discussing issues, sharing thoughts / ideas, and troubleshooting, but they are not the official medium to submit bug reports.
Proper bug reports will receive more attention from the devs than forum posts.
