Chart and tooltip feasibility
Hi Linu
Thank you for reaching out to the Microsoft Fabric community forum.
Power BI does not expose line chart legend colors to DAX, conditional formatting, or report page tooltips. Because of this, a custom tooltip (table/matrix) cannot automatically inherit or stay in sync with the line chart colors, especially when new years are added.
Also, native tooltips cannot be sorted, while report page tooltips lose the built-in colored line indicators. This makes it difficult to achieve all requirements together using native capabilities.
As of now, you can try using a custom tooltip along with manual color logic (via DAX or a mapping approach), but fully dynamic color synchronization with the line chart is not supported.
If you have any further questions, feel free to reach out and we'll be glad to assist.

Okay , i got the concept but can we handle future years with conditioanl formatting as every year should show different colored line ?
