Map data by postcode
Hi Martina,
I played with different variants but unfortunately failed. Map Charts allows to show Northern Ireland only if you use districts names only. When you may select State/County level in settings which gives the result. As soon as you add BT postcodes, which are actually the part of UK post codes system, state/county level disappeared and you may select entire UK (automatic) or regions with data.
My impression, which is based on feedbacks on this forum, Map Charts works fine for USA only, for all other regions it has this or that issues.
Thank you for your help.
I really appreciate it.
Martina

Sorry I can't help. If you find the solution one day please share here.

SergeiBaklan I just think that's really ridiculous! Thanks for responding in any case, Sergei. You take care. Regards.

Afraid that doesn't work. You may add data for Manchester or Great Manchester and select option to show "Only regions with data", but that will be not continuous. Otherwise it shows entire country. UK in our case, Microsoft doesn't split on England, Scotland, etc.

SergeiBaklan hi Sergei. I hope my message finds you well. Is there no way we can make these postcode maps contiguous? I'm trying to map Manchester in England and whilst it does indeed map out every postcode, it isn't contiguous, with gaps everywhere like in the screenshot you've provided of Belfast. This seems ridiculous! Any idea of a workaround? Thanks muchly and do take care.

Wyn, the question is how to show entire Northern Ireland (without other UK countries) if BT codes are added. I didn't find the solution.

This was the best result I could get. Not ideal
