I have a graph which looks like the following:
At this point, I have a tooltip which shows a table if user hovers over any part of the graph. Eg: shows Standard Complexity with At risk = Yes category.
It is difficult for the user to copy the details that pop up, because when mouse moves, the tooltip diappears.

Hello @some_analyst
Yes, there are ways to make the tooltip information more accessible for users in Power BI. Here are some approaches:
Drillthrough Pages: You can set up a drillthrough page in your report. When a user clicks on a specific part of the graph, they are taken to a new page that displays detailed information in a table format. This allows users to copy the data easily.
Bookmarks and Buttons: Use bookmarks and buttons to create an interactive experience. For example, clicking on a graph element can trigger a bookmark that displays a table with the relevant details.
Custom Visuals: Consider using custom visuals that support click interactions. Some third-party visuals available in the Power BI marketplace might offer better functionality for displaying and copying data.
Export Data: Allow users to export the underlying data of the graph. They can right-click on the visual and select "Export data" to get the details in an Excel file.
