Can I remove the "Values" fields from ToolTips

 

I want to add calculated columns to my tooltips but i also want to remove the values that

are displayed on the Line Chart. I also turned off the Data labels so the user doesn't see the true values.

You cannot exclude individual fields from the standard tooltip, as mentioned by Herbert earlier, but I have done a work around which works well.  I have a map and wanted to exclude the ugly latitude and longitude numbers from the tooltip.

  1. Create another page (hidden) and set it as a tooltip (Format Options > Page Information) and make it small to only include the field(s) you want
  2. Back in your visual where you want the tooltip, go to Format Options, Tooltip and make the type 'Report page'.  Select this new hidden page from step one and bingo, no ugly/unwanted fields in your tooltip

You can turn off tooltips since 2018 July:

Turning off the Tooltip feature as mentioned above doesn't truly remove them.  (it just turns off the flexibility to show other values within that tooltip and format them).
ie - If you mouseover the bar graph, you'll still see the value appear for that selection.  

Workaround: However, you can "trick" the tooltip into not appearing!  Within the Tooltip menu, turn it On, then scroll to Transperency --> make that 100%.   Now your tooltips won't display as you mouseover them. 

This was particularly helpful for my scenario, in which I was needing to color code values (using conditional formatting) and also prevent the actual value from being displayed.
