Is there a way to do simple arithmetic on fields within a Metric within a Maps Visualization?

For example, I want to create a region map where the regions are colored by the ratio of two Fields. So I have field\_1 and field\_2 and I want to roll up the value

> SUM(field\_1)/SUM(field\_2)

for each region.

Thanks in advance!

That is not currently supported but would be a nice enhancement. Could you please create a feature request at [https://github.com/elastic/kibana/issues/new?template=Feature\_request.md](https://github.com/elastic/kibana/issues/new?template=Feature_request.md)
