React VectorMap - areaSettings Deprecated

Use the layers property instead.

An object specifying options for the map areas.

Type:

Object

The map areas usually represent geographical objects, such as countries, continents, etc. The appearance of these areas is specified by the options of the areaSettings configuration object. If these options are defined on the first level of the areaSettings object, they are applied to all the map areas at once. However, you can specify several of these options for certain areas exclusively. See the customize option description to learn how.

borderColor Deprecated

Use the borderColor property instead.

Specifies a color for the area border.

Type:

String

Default Value: '#9d9d9d'

This option supports the following colors:

borderWidth Deprecated

Use the borderWidth property instead.

Specifies the width of the area border in pixels.

Type:

Number

Default Value: 1

color Deprecated

Use the color property instead.

Specifies a color for an area.

Type:

String

Default Value: '#d2d2d2'

This option supports the following colors:

colorGroupingField Deprecated

Use the colorGroupingField property instead.

Specifies the field that provides data to be used for coloring areas.

Type:

String

Default Value: undefined

If you need for the color of a specific map area to depend on the value of one of its attributes, assign the name of this attribute to the colorGroupingField option. The attribute must contain numeric values. After that, specify groups into which attribute values must be classified. For this purpose, assign an array to the colorGroups option. Each group in this array will be assigned a color from the palette.

colorGroups Deprecated

Use the colorGroups property instead.

Allows you to paint areas with similar attributes in the same color.

Type:

Array<Number>

Default Value: undefined

If you have specified the field that provides area-coloring data, you need to specify groups into which this data must be classified. For this purpose, assign an array of numbers to the colorGroups option. Each pair of numbers in this array defines a range of data values.

For example, imagine that the colorGroups array contains four items: [0, 1, 2, 3]. This array specifies three ranges, or groups: 0-1, 1-2 and 2-3. Thus, data values will be split up into three groups. Each group will be assigned a color from the palette in order to paint the corresponding areas. Areas of those data values that do not match neither group will be drawn in a default color.

customize Deprecated

Specifies the function that customizes each area individually.

Type:

hoveredBorderWidth Deprecated

Use the hoveredBorderWidth property instead.

Type:

Number

Default Value: 1

hoveredColor Deprecated

hoverEnabled Deprecated

Use the hoverEnabled property instead.

Specifies whether or not to change the appearance of an area when it is hovered over.

Type:

Boolean

Default Value: true

If this option is set to true, you can specify colors for the hovered area and its border using the hoveredColor and hoveredBorderColor options, respectively.

label Deprecated

Use the label property instead.

Configures area labels.

Type:

Object

An area label is a text that accompanies a map area. Usually, an area label displays the name of a certain geographical object, such as a country, a continent, etc.

Texts for area labels are provided by one of the fields of the attributes object. This object must be declared in the map data source, while the required field must be assigned to the dataField option of the label object.

If you have provided data for area labels, enable them on your map by assigning true to the enabled option of the label object.

In addition, you can change the appearance of area labels using the label.font object.

palette Deprecated

Use the palette property instead.

Specifies the name of the palette or a custom range of colors to be used for coloring a map.

Type:

Array<String>

|

String

Default Value: 'Default'
Accepted Values: 'Default' | 'Soft Pastel' | 'Harmony Light' | 'Pastel' | 'Bright' | 'Soft' | 'Ocean' | 'Vintage' | 'Violet' | 'Carmine' | 'Dark Moon' | 'Soft Blue' | 'Dark Violet' | 'Green Mist'

A palette defines a range of colors that are used to paint areas on a map. This range is divided into segments using the value assigned to the paletteSize option. Each segment contributes a color into a resulting array of colors. The more of these segments, the greater the variety of colors in this array. All available palettes are listed in the accepted values.

In order to apply a palette to a map, follow the next steps.

  • Assign the name of the required palette (or an array of two colors) to the palette option.
  • Use the paletteSize option to define how many colors should be produced from the palette or array specified in the previous step.
  • Specify the index of the color from the colors array, which should be used for coloring an area, using the paletteIndex field of the object returned by the customize callback function.

paletteSize Deprecated

Use the paletteSize property instead.

Specifies the number of colors in a palette.

Type:

Number

Default Value: 0

Assign a number that is greater than 0 to this option in order to use palettes.

selectedBorderColor Deprecated

Use the selectedBorderColor property instead.

Specifies a color for the area border when the area is selected.

Type:

String

Default Value: '#303030'

This option supports the following colors:

selectedBorderWidth Deprecated

Use the selectedBorderWidth property instead.

Specifies the pixel-measured width of the area border when the area is selected.

Type:

Number

Default Value: 2

selectedColor Deprecated

Use the selectedColor property instead.

Specifies a color for an area when this area is selected.

Type:

String

Default Value: '#d2d2d2'

This option supports the following colors:

selectionMode Deprecated

Use the selectionMode property instead.

Specifies whether single or multiple areas can be selected on a vector map.

Type:

String

Default Value: 'single'
Accepted Values: 'multiple' | 'none' | 'single'

Several options and methods are connected with the selection operation. To specify whether single or multiple areas can be selected at a time, use the selectionMode option. To determine whether a certain area is selected when the widget is created, use the isSelected field of the object returned by the customize callback function.

At runtime, you can do the following operations.

  • Obtain the current selection state of an area using its selected() method.

  • Change the current selection state of an area using its selected(state) method. Pass true or false to this method.

  • Deselect all the selected areas using the clearAreaSelection() method of the map instance.

The change of the selection state invokes the callback function assigned to the onAreaSelectionChanged option. Within this function you can handle the selection event in the manner you require.
