Data Labels in React Maps component

Data labels provide information to users about the shapes of the Maps component.

Add data labels

You can add label text to the shapes of the Maps component using dataLabelSettings. The following sample demonstrates the names of all the states n the United States in data labels.

import { world_map } from 'world-map.ts';
import { usa_map } from 'usa.ts';
import * as React from "react";
import * as ReactDOM from "react-dom";
import { MapsComponent, LayersDirective, LayerDirective, Inject, DataLabel } from '@syncfusion/ej2-react-maps';

ReactDOM.render(
            <MapsComponent id="maps">
            <Inject services={[DataLabel]} />
                <LayersDirective>
                    <LayerDirective shapeData={usa_map}
                                    shapeSettings= {{
                                        autofill: true
                                    }}
                     dataLabelSettings={ {
                            visible: true,
                            labelPath: 'name',
                        } }>
                    </LayerDirective>
                </LayersDirective>
            </MapsComponent>,
document.getElementById("maps") as HTMLElement
);
import { usa_map } from 'usa.ts';
import * as React from "react";
import * as ReactDOM from "react-dom";
import { MapsComponent, LayersDirective, LayerDirective, Inject, DataLabel } from '@syncfusion/ej2-react-maps';
ReactDOM.render(<MapsComponent id="maps">
            <Inject services={[DataLabel]}/>
                <LayersDirective>
                    <LayerDirective shapeData={usa_map} shapeSettings={{
    autofill: true
}} dataLabelSettings={{
    visible: true,
    labelPath: 'name',
}}>
                    </LayerDirective>
                </LayersDirective>
            </MapsComponent>, document.getElementById("maps"));

The autofill property is used in shapeSettings to apply the default palette colors to the shapes.

Some data labels intersect with other labels in this output. The following options are used to avoid intersecting:

Smart labels

The Maps component provides an option to specify the smart labels when the labels intersect with the corresponding shape borders. In the smartLabelMode property, you can specify any of the following options:

  • None
  • Hide
  • Trim

Intersect action

This specifies the intersect action when a label intersect with another label. In the intersectionAction property, you can specify any of the following options:

  • None
  • Hide
  • Trim
