What visualization am I using?
mglasser ,
Could you please share the viz screen shot? May be it's custom visual. Also you can check the extra custom visuals like below screen shot.
Here is a screenshot of the viz when it is selected. I see no custom visualizations as shown in your picture, nor do I see any delivered viz highlighted. Maybe someone recognizes the options in the Fields well, particularly the "color saturation" option. It would be nice to know this viz, but my question is more general for identifying any visualization that I see in a PBI file.
It looks peculiar. I mean I haven't seen this before.
Hi mglasser ,
I think it's Shape Map. It's quite strange that you don't have Shape Map in your Visualizations pane.
What's your Desktop version? Try update it to latest version and see if this fixed.
Best Regards,

It seems from the responses there is no way to know the visualization used by only looking in the text available in the PBIX file. And in my case where it is not highlighting the viz in the panel, there is no way to know the name of a visualization unless someone else can recognize it's available properties. This seems so odd, since the desktop seems to know what viz it is so it can highlight the right visualization. But I guess sometimes the solution is "no, there is no solution." Thanks everyone for the help.
