Maps, Zip code boundries, and shading
I have measures associated with zip codes. I have the zip code boundries option turned on. Is there a way to shade the actual zip code area instead of simply having a mark (circle.square,etc) displayed within the zip code?
Thanks
Plans for data overlay using shapefiles?
I would love to see use of the mapping features with shading in the various shapefiles (area code, zip code, state, etc) - it seems as though you are 90% of the way there - I can map data to an area code for example and then use the data in the color pane to shade it based on the value - all that is left is to overlay this data on the shapefile rather than a circle.
Is this something you have in the pipeline?
Following is an example of what I am talking about (w/ no real data behind it - just the visual):

geocoding feature
Hi,
It would be nice if you would add County FIPS Code to Tableau's list of geocode-able roles since many data sets may come with abbreviated, differently punctuated or whatnot names for Counties but the FIPS code would be unambiguous.

Multiple data sources on one map
The maps in Tableau 4 are very nice.
However, one thing that I do often is show multiple sets of data on one map: Perhaps one point for each customer (sized and/or colored by volume), and then some sort of symbol for each store or warehouse location. This is easy enough to do in most mapping applications, but as far as I can tell I can't do this in Tableau.
