Hello community,

we are on Board Version:12.3 Revision: 0.0.70028.

We are trying to create a very simple map with shipped quantity by shipping destination point.

The maps looks correctely defined with latitude and longitude for each shipping destination.

Bubbles dimension is working fine while defining the Radius by quantity.

The color is stuck. Looks like if a bug is on that chart because even if trying with small numbers or big numbers the color always remains the same.

Here we are the settings at the moment:

Any suggestion?

In addition, it would be nice if colors could be assigned by entity value, but this should be a plus.

Thanks in advance

    Hi Stefano,

    How are you trying to set the color?

    Per the Board Manaul:

    If you select multiple Blocks in the "Color" dropdown list, they will also appear in the contextual menu (sliding toolbar) both in Design and Play mode under the "Shapes" dropdown list: from there, just select the Block you want to be used as driver for the map areas color.

    Thank you Zachary,

    following the documentation it's clear how to define colors based on the key figure value.

    Any suggestion to do it based on an Entity value?
