    I had been using QGIS on a Mac, so I tried it instead on Windows and it finally worked. And the map works in all 3 projections in Power BI.

Hi mappr 

 

Is it possible for you to share the shapefile ? so that someone can look into it, recreate the issue, and find a solution?

Hi kushanNa and freginier 

 

Originally, I used QGIS on a Mac to create the shape file for importing into mapshaper and had the problem as described, even after trying the no quantize specification.

 

So I tried instead to use QGIS in Windows and found that the custom map now displays properly in Power BI with all three projections, and I didn't have to use the no quantize option.

 

So maybe it's an issue of QGIS on the Mac.

Thanks again for taking the time to respond!
