Hi. I am working on displaying cities with different severity levels. Cities with sev1 should be in red, sev2 in amber and sev3 in yellow. I also want to display city name and sev level in tooltip. I tried this solution:

But the issue is, all the cities are displayed in different colors. I want to display the city based on the color I specify. I have even inserted the color in map element xml view.{sev1:0xFF3300,sev2:0xFFCC66,sev3:0xFFFF66}. the query am using is...."

eval sev=case(units>=120,"sev1",units<120 AND units>=50,"sev2",units<25,"sev3") |  eval new_field=city.": ".sev | lookup cities.csv cityname as city OUTPUTNEW latitude,longitude| geostats globallimit=0 latfield=latitude longfield=longitude count by new_field"

I believe this question is a duplicate of http://answers.splunk.com/answers/106729/map-visualization-regex-for-mapping-fieldcolors.html

Try looking for the solution there. It involves using the xyseries command.
