Can't add Data fields to Tooltips on Map

I have a map of stores.  I would like to use Tooltips to show store attributes: store name, city, store manager, etc.  However, whenever I drag a data field into the Tooltips box it won't stick -- disappears.  All my Tooltip shows is the GPS (which I could live without) and the field I'm using for the Legend.

 

All of the store attributes are in the same 'Stores' table as the GPS coordinates (single field) that define the points on the map.

 

Any suggestions appreciated.  Thanks!

    I found a solution.  In my model implicit measures were disabled because I was using incremental refresh.  I created explicit measures to use in the tooltips.

    e.g. Tooltip Store = first (store),

    Tooltip SalesPerson = first (salesperson), etc.

      I'm using the standard map visual (not 'Filled Map').  Dropping the legend does not correct the problem.   

       

      Any other ideas?

        Would you be able to provide some sample data and indicate the expected outcome?
