Shape Map - Display field when country is clicked

‎10-17-2018 02:23 PM

Hi

 

I have created a world shape map that is linked to an Excel spreadsheet.  This spreadsheet has three columns; Country, Status and Comments.  The map is colour coded by category and this all works well.

 

However I now want to do one more thing and I'm not sure if it's possible.  I've set the zoom settings to selection zoom so when a country is clicked it zooms into the country.  I would like the Comments field to be displayed in a text box or something similar, but only when the country is clicked.  Is this possible?

 

I'd be grateful if anyone with any experience of this could let me know if this is possible.

 

Many thanks in advance.

@gjayne84 you can put your comments in a measure and show that in card visual:

 

myComment =
IF( HASONEFILTER( Table[Country]), MAX( Table[Comment] )

and now use this myComment measure in card visual.
