It's not easy to do that... here's a somewhat dirty hack around it
(which might break later on):
Give the Country facet an ID:
<div ex:role="facet" ex:expression=".Country"
ex:facetLabel="Country" ex:showMissing="false" id="the-country-facet"></div>
Then add this code after you include all the exhibit .js stuff:
<script>
Exhibit.MapView.prototype._createInfoWindow = function(items) {
window.setTimeout(function() {
var countries = database.getObjectsUnion(items, "Country");
var facet = exhibit.getComponent("the-country-facet");
var oldRestrictions = { selection:
facet._valueSet.toArray(), selectMissing: facet._selectMissing };
var newRestrictions = { selection: countries.toArray(),
selectMissing: false };
SimileAjax.History.addLengthyAction(
function() { facet.applyRestrictions(newRestrictions); },
function() { facet.applyRestrictions(newRestrictions); },
"clicked on map"
);
}, 200);
return Exhibit.ViewUtilities.fillBubbleWithItems(
null,
items,
this._uiContext
);
};
</script>
