    In Power BI, a single visual cannot show both the Report-page tooltip and the default (built-in) tooltip at the same time.
    Power BI allows only one tooltip type per visual — either:

    1.Default Tooltip (auto-generated by Power BI).

    2. Custom / Report Page Tooltip

    Once a Report Page is assigned.

    You can do two things:

     

    ONE:

    Add the default tooltip fields manually into your report-page tooltip

    You can re-create the default tooltip by manually adding:

    • Axis value

    • Legend

    • Data point value

    • Additional fields

    This gives the same effect as the default tooltip while keeping your custom layout.

     

    TWO:

    Use Power BI “Smart Tooltip” patterns

    You can build a toggle inside your tooltip page:

    Example:

    • Button: Show Default Tooltip

    • Button: Show Custom Tooltip

    Use bookmarks to flip between two tooltip layouts.

    This is the closest to “dual tooltip” behavior.
