map visual: control sizing by hidden column?

[hxkresl]

is it possible to size the bubbles on the map (globe icon) by a column that is not returned to the visual?  

I have a column where the importance of the value is inverse to the value itself.  For example: Sev 0 is actually the highest severity, while Sev 10 is the lowest.  

I have created an additional column and assigned inverse values to these Severities and used this column to control sizing of bubbles on map, but I don't want to display these column values as they do not mean anything to users.

@hxkresl,

In a Map visual, when move mouse to the bubbles, the tooltips show all the fields that used in your map visual, and currently there is no such a option to allow us to disable any fileds in the tooltips.

If you have any concern on this feature, you can submit your idea on the link below. If this feature was mentioned by mulitple users, product team will consider to add this feature to next release.
