Geographic Maps with Marker

PeterParker — Wed, 05 Jun 2019 14:19:20 GMT

Hi, I just created a density map with Graph Builder and I wanted the country names to appear on the map, so I used the country column (with country names) as a marker and I then labelled it. I guess I missed some steps as no country names popped up on the map. Any suggestion as to have it properly set?

Here's where I'm starting with a map that uses the map shape role.

Go back to the data table and right click on the column name that has the information you want to use as a label (in my case it's the country name) and select Label/Unlabel.

If you look at the list of column names it should have a little label tag icon next to it.

Select the rows in the data table for the shapes you want to label. Right-click in the area with the row numbers and select "Label/Unlabel."

The rows should have little label tags now, too.

The map should now show the labeled information as well
