Recreate default tooltip style

I'm creating a custom tooltip for a few charts since I can't re-order the values in the default tooltip. I want to recreate the styling of the original tooltip due to its clean look. This means a right-aligned label with it's legend color and a left-aligned value, with each row expanding to fit the value. I can't create anything like that using the table, matrix, card, multi-row card, or text box visuals, or any combination of them. Any ideas?

 

TIA

    Anonymous you can surely use table visual but auto expand is something I don't think is possible but yes, rest look and feel you can achieve.

      I know how to do as much as I can with a table. The downsides are not being able to turn off headers, no auto-expand, and there is no way to pull in the colors of a legend on the parent visual. Those are what I'm looking for.

        Anonymous header yes, you can hide in a way, changing foreground and background color the same. Regarding tooltip color, if you use conditional formatting with your own measure to add the color, you can use the same measure in your visual and in the table so it will serve that purpose.

         

        Honestly it is bit of work to achieve what you are trying to do, it is not straight forward but you can still achieve somewhat 90% if you think you really need this custo tooltip. Just sharing ideas
