Hello everyone,

I have a question regarding the functionality of table join.

If I have a shapefile (United States - Counties) and I joined two tables (Population Density and Income per Capita) how do I show both tables?

Let me better explain. I have used the Quantity-Graduate Color for the Population Density. How do I do the same, by using Quantity-Dot Density, for Income per Capita? If I change the selection in the drop down menu and I change from Population Density to Income per Capita, and I select Quantity-Dot Density, then the first (Population Density via Quantity-Graduate Color) disappears.

How do I create a final visualization with the shapefile as a basis and the counties colored showing population density and filled out with dots for income per capita?

Thanks you so much!

Is it a single layer in your Map View or two layers?  If only one layer, you could copy/paste the layer so it's two layers in the Map View - then do your two symbolization techniques.  Another workaround is have one Map View for Graduated Color for Pop Density and one Map View for Income per Capita Dot Density.

make a copy of the shapefile... join only 1 table to it

join the other table to the original shapefile
