Hi all,

I'm testing the Kibana Maps feature (7.3 version) and it's really great, kudos! However, as I intend to work with a huge (about billions of documents) index, I could not help but notice that a message saying "Results limited to first 10000 documents" is shown when I hover the mouse over each layer header.

I would like to configure this limit... Is it possible?

I tried to increase the value of the "index.max\_result\_window" setting, to no avail.

Thanks in advance.

It looks like this setting is not based on the `index.max_result_window` setting, as you can see in the constants file in the new maps app: [https://github.com/elastic/kibana/blob/master/x-pack/legacy/plugins/maps/common/constants.js#L41](https://github.com/elastic/kibana/blob/master/x-pack/legacy/plugins/maps/common/constants.js#L41)

This is probably worth filing an issue on Github for.

Thanks, I'll do it!
