Marker size example

The following image shows the county capitals in Sweden with the marker size set to size by the Sum(Population 2015). The populations between these capitals vary greatly: Stockholm is very large and Visby is very small, so the slider is set to display all towns and cities, with the extremes on either end of the scale visible and reasonable. (Cities over 200,000 are set to display circles filled with red.)
