Is it possible to eliminate the counties on each map?

[FusionCharts Support]

Hi,

I am afraid, i did not understand the term "eliminate"? Could you please elaborate on this a bit. I hope you are taking about USA map.

Hi,

 

 

 

Is there a way to show few states not all for US map or to make some states disabled (no mouse hover color change, no tool tip) ?

 

 

 

Thanks

Hello,

I have replied to a smilar forum post made by you in the link below:

http://www.fusioncharts.com/forum/Topic18513-11-1.aspx

Please refer to the above post.

the link is not working (I am assuming is for the old forum). Since I need this feature, can I have the correct lik or, at least, a solution?

Thanks

Hi,

 

We are looking into the issue. We shall update you on this as soon it is fixed.

 

Thanks you for your continued patience and patronage.

[pitommasi]

anyway, apart from the forum issues, can the map issue be solved (hide some countries from the map?

Hi,

 

Hope your issue has been resolved in http://forum.fusioncharts.com/topic/8978-hide-entities/page__pid__36613#entry36613

Unfortunately, not entirely, because I also needed to get rid of the blank space left fom hidden entities...

[FusionCharts Support]

I am afraid, as of now, you can not remove the extra spaces left from hidden entities.

 

However, you can crop a map using negative values of map margins (mapLeftMargin, mapRightMargin, mapTopMargin, mapBottomMargin) and use proper cropped map width and height to take some part of the map out of the map's visible canvas. Note that this work-around may crop any other visible entity out of the visible canvas.

 

Please see the sample screenshot and XML below (for World map - FCMap_World.swf; width-360 height-360) which puts North America and south America entities out of map canvas. For this the width and height are modified:

 

<map  hoverOnEmpty='0' BorderAlpha='0' showlabels='1' showBevel='0' showShadow='0' fillcolor='886688' mapLeftMargin='-350' mapRightMargin='-100'>
       <data>
               <entity id='NA'  alpha='0'  showLabel='0'/>
               <entity id='SA'  alpha='0' showLabel='0'/>
               <entity id='EU'  value='3' displayValue='My Europe' showLabel='1'/>
               <entity id='AS'  value='3' displayValue='Oriental land' tooltext='tooltext' showLabel='1'/>
               <entity id='AF'  showLabel='0'/>
               <entity id='AU'  showLabel='0' />
       </data>
</map>

 

The success of this depends on the position of the entity which you are hiding. If you are hiding an entity which is placed next to the margins of the map and cropping the map does not crop a visible entity, it's your baby!

 

P.S. Lots of fighting with the margin values might bother you though.

thanks!

Is there a criteria that helpsin having to "fight" less (i.e. calculate the margins in a 'scientific' way)?

Hi,

 

There is no scientific way to calculate the margins.

 

Thanks for your time.
