Solved: Re: Choropleth Zero Count Should Always be Gray

genesiusj · ‎08-03-2020

Hello,

I created a choropleth map. As the map is being rendered the color for the field-value count=0 continually changes until the rendering ends. Depending on the time picker, the zero value color will be different.

How can I hardcode the color for count=0 to gray? Preferably throughout the rendering, it should be gray; but I'll settle for it being gray once rendering is finished.

*Ultimately, I would like to use color ranges.
0 = gray
1-10 = green
11-20 = orange
21-1000=red

<panel id="ipmap">
 <title>Claims World View</title>
  <map>
    <search base="mainSearch">
      <query>| search (Country!="1-IP not in DB" AND Country!="2-IP Data N/A")
| rex field=jsessionid "(?&lt;jsession_id&gt;.+)\." 
| dedup jsession_id 
| stats count(jsession_id) AS count BY Country
| sort -count
| eval count = Country + " - " + count
| geom geo_countries allFeatures=True featureIdField="Country"</query>
    </search>
        <option name="drilldown">none</option>

niketnilay,

The solution was a lot simpler.

<option name="mapping.fieldColors">{"0":0x808080}</option>

@genesiusj try the following CSS override where <map id="chropleth_white_override_with_grey">

      <html depends="$alwaysHideCSSPanel$">
        <style>
          #chropleth_white_override_with_grey .leaflet-overlay-pane svg g path[fill="#ffffff"]{
            fill: #000 !important;
          }
          #chropleth_white_override_with_grey div.legend.leaflet-control svg g.svg-colors rect:first-child{
            fill: #000 !important;
          }
        </style>
      </html>

Thanks @niketn

I copied exactly (I'm sure) but it did not work.

  <row depends="$alwaysHideCSSStyle$">
    <panel>
      <html>
        <style>
          #iplocation {width:50% !important;}
          #ipmap {width:50% !important;}
          #noiplocation {width:50% !important;}
          #chropleth_white_override_with_grey .leaflet-overlay-pane svg g path[fill="#ffffff"]{
            fill: #000 !important;
          }
          #chropleth_white_override_with_grey div.legend.leaflet-control svg g.svg-colors rect:first-child{
            fill: #000 !important;
          }
        </style>
      </html>
    </panel>
  </row>

    <panel id="ipmap">
      <title>Claims World View</title>
      <map id="chropleth_white_override_with_grey">
        <search base="mainSearch">

This is for yesterday’s logs.

This is for the last 60 minutes of logs.

Thanks for your help. Stay safe and healthy, you and yours.
