    Would you please vote for the similar idea in Power BI forum which has been submitted to improve Power BI and make this feature coming sooner.

     

    Best Regards,

    Dedmon Dai

Aha, yes thanks! I only started with Power BI this Monday, so don't mind admitting being clueless 😄

 

Is there a way to format the default tooltip on a multi-line graph? I'm trying to re-order the values in the tool tip, so that the most recent year shows first. So just reversing the existing order, not creating a custom order.

 

Many tahnks,

Mike
