Hi @chen Xu

Do you want to show "Taiwan" as a lable on map chart?

On one map, if there are some countries/ regions with a large area such as China, Taiwan may not have enough places to show this label on the map, because Taiwan appears small on the map compared to them.

Here is my test, the source data is as following, and I select show "only regions with data".

Then some characters of category name can be displayed on map. But currently we can not adjust these labels' size to show more characters.

If the map is adjusted to be bigger, and the fonts is adjusted to be smaller, then "Taiwan" will show more characters.

Hope the information is helpfu.

Hi Emily，

As you can see, Taiwan is selected as data, but the Map Chart could not show Taiwan with blue color.

Hi @chen Xu ,

Thanks for your quick reply.

According to your sample, I can not reproduce your issue.

Please go to File > Account > Product Information, check the version name and version number.
Besides, please also go to Windows Settings, check the region that you set for your Windows like following image.

Hi @chen Xu
Thanks for your quick reply.

Could you please test "Taiwan" as a province instaed of a region?

Besides, please go to My Account > Your Info, check the country/ region, such as China, Hong Kong, or elsewhere.
Here is an article describe this situation: "Beware, your location can affect Map Charts in Excel", that Office Map Charts can change depending on the users' Microsoft accounts.

Hi,

Sorry for late reply,

I tried, but with no luck as well.

whatever Chinese or English, Taiwan could not be marked as well.

And under provice level, only Chinese could be regnized.
