Customize Tooltip on a row field in Matrix visual

[leifstar81]

Hi

I need help with customizing the tooltip when hovering over the row data column in the matrix visual. I have figured out to do custom tooltips through a report page and assign it to the value data on the matrix visual, but that doesnt work on the row data.

I cannot post the real data i work with due to privacy reasons, but i will make up an an example.

The dataset is as follows:

Continent	Country	Capital	Inhabitants	Area
America	Canada	Ottawa	150000000	50000
America	Mexico	Mexico City	100000000	30000
America	USA	Washington DC	300000000	45000
Europe	Germany	Berlin	80000000	10000
Europe	Denmark	Copenhagen	5000000	1200
Europe	France	Paris	60000000	8000
Asia	Japan	Tokio	120000000	17000

From this i create a matrix visual showing the continent and country as rows and the inhabitants and area as values. And then i want to show the capital as a tooltip when you hover over the country.

Right now it just shows the standard tooltip. And as I said I have figured out how to customize and even make a dynamic tooltip for the Inhabitants and Area Columns. Any ideas?

I think I can help you with this @leifstar81 - do you have a sample PBIX you can send?

@leifstar81 , What I got is that you do not want to pass a few values to the tooltip page(it should not filter). Then you can switch off the option - Keep All filters. And in the below box drag all columns you want to filter

Ehm, I am sorry but I don't understand. In the picture below it shows the Tooltip when I hover over Germany. The tooltip also states Germany. But I want it to say Berlin.
