Colors and Maps

[Anonymous]

I have specified the hex colors I want to appear as points in my map.  However, the colors that appear on the map are different from the ones I have specified.  (see below)

Do you know how I can fix that?  Does Power BI expect hex or some other color code?

Thank you

Property Type	Color code	Color I am Expecting	Color on Map
Leased	FF0000	Red	Green
Owned	0000FF	Blue	Purple
Commercial Morgtage	00FF00	Green	Blue
Auto	00FFFF	Cyan	Red

Hi @Anonymous ,

Find the layer settings in the map, click Symbology -> Symbol Color -> Custom Color  -> Set your custom color for your types -> Standard colors.

Thank you @dkaushik .  I see where I can specify a pin color, but don't see where I can specify the color depending on the pin.  I did this in the file I showed previously, but the colors shown in the map are not the ones I am expecting.  😞

Hi @Anonymous ,

You should be able to format the map visual under formatting pane.
