You can specify the following settings in this window.
- Color palette - allows you to specify the start and end color of the palette.

Also, the Choropleth Map allows you to visualize the difference between the actual and target values of a particular parameter. To specify delta indication settings, click the Options button next to the data item container. This invokes the Choropleth Map Options dialog. When the map type is set to Delta, this dialog contains the following settings.
Value type
You can specify which values to display within map tooltips. Use the Value type combo box to select the value that will be displayed as the delta value.
Result Indication
You can specify the condition that will be used to select the indicator color. To do this, use the Result indication combo box.
Threshold type and Threshold value
You can specify that a required indicator should only be displayed when the difference between the actual and target values exceeds a specified value. For instance, the actual value exceeds the target value by 10%, or by $2K. Use the Threshold type combo box to select whether you wish to specify the threshold in percentage values or in absolute values. Then use the Threshold value box to specify the threshold value.
