Treemap Visual Color differentiation is really hit and miss
Hi boldwake
Could I ask the question why you want to show down to such a level of detail with the TreeMap visual?
I have found in my experience that typically people are more interested in the top or bottom values, which then would make the TreeMap visual work as expected. I find that when there is that level of details, people do not typically go down to that level.
Each box in that treemap is a brand that we sell and not in the picture is brand search function, so it is really easy to look at the top brands as they are the big boxes but also easy to search for the smaller ones and not have to adjust the visual

Hi boldwake,
From your screenshot, I note that you have same color(Orange) for different categories category , manually set different colors for each Treemap category under Data colors.

Hi Lydia,
I'm trying to avoid that. While i can pick the colors myself the point of the quersion is more that when everything is set to "DEFAULT", I don't know why it is defaults to SOOOO much orange rather than just repeating the color variations over and over again so that there is a lot more color variation rather than orange.
If i manually pick them then (A) it difficult to change color themes at a later date and (B) it would take FOREVER

Hi boldwake,
You are able to change color theme at a later date with JSON filte.
In addition, would you mind sharing me sample data of your table so that I can reproduce?
Thanks,
