Is it possible to add the functionality of displaying labels (value, location,etc) on the Shape Map visual (in preview as of June 2016)?
The visual does currently display a tooltip for the location.

I would consider this a core feature of this visual which is currently lacking. The lack of this feature is causing issues as charts are potentially not accessible to those with disabilities, as well as being generally less intuitive to use than they otherwise could be.
RE: Shape Map
This is a basic requirement and should have been part of the initial implementation. A bit like having a pie chart without labels. As a workaround, can use text boxes in combination with measures, but it is a clunky solution.
RE: Shape Map
Yes Please add this functionality.
RE: Shape Map
This feature is highly needed and crucial
RE: Shape Map
This would be incredibly helpful. If you could identify in the Map Key the field you would want to use for a label, or determine via a table field within Power BI, that would be amazing.
RE: Shape Map
it's very important to add feature of data label to shape map to be more informative
RE: Shape Map
This is a basic requirement for data visualizations. All competing data visualization products include such a feature.
RE: Shape Map
This is the most simple of basic functions. It should be a no brainer to have it from the beginning.
RE: Shape Map
Lack of shape map labels disqualifies Power BI for many projects. Please add!
RE: Shape Map
A big yes to this as its kind of must to be able to show labels on map it self so that map can be self explanatory.
