Regarding state boundaries, let’s assume you have an attribute whose values are names of states. Let’s say the name of this attribute is State.

Now you need an attribute that whose values are the boundaries themselves. The name of this attribute can be any of the following: ‘boundary’, ‘boundaries’, ‘polygon’, ‘Boundary’, ‘Boundaries’, ‘Polygon’

Finally, you write a formula for this boundary attribute: lookupBoundary(US_state_boundaries,State)

After you accept this formula you should see for values small blue polygons that represent the boundaries for each of the states.

Hope this helps,
