Custom tooltip on a table column

[nagaraj]

Hello All,

 I am having below scenario and need help on the below. Please suggest if you have solution

Scenario : I have a text VIEW and on mouse hover on this need to display comments in a tooltip as shown below.

                I have tried Tooltip page card, but that tooltip is showing across all the columns. I need specifically the comments in tooltip only for a particular field.

Hi @nagaraj ,

By my tests and research, I'm afraid that we cannot achieve your desired output currently in Power BI Desktop.

You could vote this similar idea here and add your comments there to improve Power BI and make this feature coming sooner.

@Icey  As suggested by @Greg_Deckler the tooltip required for my scenario is working.  But i can see the tooltip repeating for all the columns.

@Greg_Deckler Do you have any options to make this tooltip available only for the single column.

Hope we need to write DAX for this .. but again not sure.

I thought that you could set the specific fields that define when you want to display the tooltip.
