Zooming In on Map For More Information
- 10 years ago
OK, so I guess I should have explored those drill down buttons a bit more. I have managed to figure this out now. For anyone else wondering how this all works...
- Drill Up (using arrow in top left corner) on your map to your highest level
- click "turn on Drill Down" arrow in top right corner
- click on data point you wish to center on (ie. Country)
- this should automatically drill down to the next level (ie. States)
- click on a new data point you wish to center on
- this will now take you to new level of detail (ie. Cities)
Hope this helps someone else out!

So I have now noticed the Drill Down buttons on the corners of the map. I guess these are supposed to do exactly what I'm asking, but I believe I have bigger issues. The data being plotted isn't correct, nor does it stay consistent. For instance I know that I have over 6000 orders that should show up in Ontario, and the map is not showing any. I should have orders showing in most if not all States, and the map only plots a handful of them. Let's say one of those States has 1000+ orders, and then I drill down to next level, I don't get those 1000 orders plotted out across the different cities.
I can take all of this same data and view just in a table, and correct numbers and places are represented. Any ideas why this isn't being translated onto the map.
Thanks.
