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 value...

    You cannot remove the values displayed in tooltips. Please vote this idea here.

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
