Tooltip
Hi All, Is there any place I can edit the content of tooltip? e.g., removing some data, or change the descriptive languange.
Thanks,
Erin

Erin The simple answer in most cases is NO.
But what visualization are you using and what do you want to change in it?
Look at this Idea I created for the Maps (you are probably talking about about something like this...)
Hi Sean,
I mean generally the tooltip on all kind of visualization chart in Power BI. I hope there's place for the developers to edit the contents, like Tableau does.
Thanks,
Erin
Indeed. I can now get a percentage but it is fixed at two decimals ... Cannot change it. I looked all over the tool by nowhere to be found.
You can create a measure to return a data or string value, for example:
<Measure Name> = FIRSTNONBLANK(<TableName>[<ColumnName>],TRUE)
(to use FIRSTNONBLANK in DirectQuery mode, you'll need to enable the PowerBI global option to "Allow unrestricted measures
in DirectQuery mode")Once you've created a measure, you can format the display of that measure under the modelling tab, then add the new measure to your tooltip.
