I want to configure the user supplied coords view and when the status changes to critical, the assigned area also change to red and not just the name as me is happening.

What do you mean by "the user supplied coords view"? The default views are "Tactical Overview", "Open Problems", "Host Detail", "Service Detail", and "Hostgroup Overview". Same goes for "assigned area" - what do you mean by this?

What I need is to get displayed the colored areas of the Circular (Marked Up) when using the user-supplied coords layout method on status map.
In need this in order to get an easy to see signal when a server or router has a problem.
I think another solution could be to get displayed a different icon when a server status changes, but I don't know where this cuold be set.

I haven't worked with defining custom coordinates on the status map much, but from what I know, I believe these are defined in the nagios config files for each host, and there isn't a setting in place that allows this. It would require changing the host configuration file and then restarting nagios every time the status changed. However, we are adding a new map feature to our upcoming release in the next month or so.
