Customise Tooltip for Decomposition Tree

[jdavison]

Hi All,

Is there any way to customise a tooltip so that it only shows a specific field when the later fields of the tree are hovered over?

Thanks

Hi @jdavison

I've run into the same issue when trying to fine-tune the user experience in the Decomposition Tree.

At the moment, there's no built-in way to conditionally show a tooltip only when you hover over the last-level field in the hierarchy. The tooltip shows up on any node, regardless of depth, which can clutter things when you're trying to highlight specific insights at the leaf level.

One workaround I’ve used is to create a tooltip page and include a custom DAX filter that checks if the current node is the lowest level.

Show Tooltip =
IF(
    ISINSCOPE('Table'[LowestLevelField]),
    1,
    0
)

Then apply this as a visual-level filter on the tooltip page.

Hi @jdavison ,
Thanks for reaching out to the Microsoft fabric community forum.

In Power BI Desktop and the Power BI service, you can create visually rich report tooltips that appear when hovering over visuals. By designing a dedicated report page as a tooltip, you can include visuals, images, and other elements to enhance the tooltip experience. You can create multiple tooltip pages, each linked to specific fields in your report. When users hover over a visual containing these fields, the corresponding custom tooltip appears, dynamically filtered based on the hovered data point. This approach unlocks a variety of creative possibilities for interactive and insightful report tooltips.

Hi @v-nmadadi-msft ,

Thank for responding, I've rea through that link and I can't see if what I've askd is answered, what I'm looking to do is have a custom tooltip that only appears when the last field in the Explain By bucket of the decomposition tree is hovered over. 

Do you know if this is possible?

Thanks

Hi  @jdavison,

Unfortunately, Power BI does not currently support customizing tooltips to appear only when hovering over the last field in the Explain By bucket of the Decomposition Tree. Tooltips in Power BI apply to the entire visual and cannot be conditionally triggered based on specific hierarchy levels within the Decomposition Tree.

If the feature is important for you, please create a post in

I think that is possible you have to make some work around while creating Tooltip
