single visual - dual tooltip(default & Report page)
- 9 months ago
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.
I hope this helps!
