Did you verify that you have data bound to the Widget?

ie A service or something on the mashup with information to display or drive that widget is bound from service or  'source' to widget 'target'

Yes, i have bound numeric data from GetPropertyValues  to Shape widget Data, tryed also string, boolean data too.

even i follow this tutorial https://developer.thingworx.com/en/resources/guides/styles-and-states/create-and-implement-state-definitions

when click the State Formatting, it says "Must bind data to the property "Data".

GetPropertyValues is an infotable result I believe and you can't bind that whole table to the Shape widget.

Did you bind a single field from that then to the widget?

Do you see the 'Data' Property binding arrow filled in black?
