Hi
I'm trying to create a simple map report that shows locations of customers from CRM (I'm using the content pack). I'd just like to add a legend to the map that shows the names of the customers, but have run into an issue.
I use the postcode to plot the locations of the customers, and a count of name (which is always 1), which shows all of them on the map. However, when add the account name as a legend, the number of customers shown always drops to 12. Any other chart type with the same data shows all customers in the legend so it's just the map plot that limits legend items to 12.
Am I doing something wrong, or is there a limitation that I don't know about?
Duncan
I was able to get more than 12 in my legend on both filled map and map visualizations
That's great. So I must be doing something wrong then, but what I wonder?
@DuncanP - Any way you can post some data by which to recreate the issue. Or, can you post a screen shot of your map with your settings for Axis and such showing so that we can see how you have it configured.
@Greg_Deckler I think I have the same issue as @DuncanP. To simplify things, I am plotting Sales Values by UK Postcode. The below configuration works as expected: All post codes are plotted and the bubbles are sized by sales value.
The issue comes in when I add the Territory to the legend. Many of the ostcodes are not Plotted as you can see in the image below:
Here's some info that might help:
The table has sales on the row level. Each sale has a postcode and a territory. The postcode is categorized as a postal code and the territory is a text field.
Why would adding the territory field to the legend plot fewer postcodes? I am expecting it to just color the postcodes.

Update:
The legend by itself is not the issue in that when I remove value, it correctly colors all the bubbles and when I remove territory, it correctly sizes all the bubbles. Is there a limitation on the amount of points using the legend and the size. It is only when I do both of these that there is an issue. Reference Image below:

P.S. Where can I host an image so I can insert it directly into a reply? Whats the best way to do this?
