Disable tooltip on matrix subtotals and/or blank rows

I have a simple matrix visual that is showing a two-tiered hierarchy with a single metric

Data:

AREA NAMEEQUIPMENTMETRICEXTRA INFO
Area 1Eq 11abc
Area 1Eq 22def
Area 2Eq 33ghi
Area 2Eq 44jkl
Area 2Eq 55mno
Area 3Eq 66pqr

 

Visual

I have set the row subtotals on EQUIPMENT to be white font on white background so there is a space between each Area (note: I have tried to do what I am about to ask with row subtotals off and "Blank Rows" on, but get the same results)

 

I have a tooltip page that displays extra information about the particular piece of equipment in a hover-over. I can control the information displayed on tooltip when hovering over a subtotal by using HASONEVALUE(), but I would rather have the tool tip  completely suppressed so it doesn't look like there's missing data.

 

Single Row:

Subtotal/blank row

Is there a way to disable the tooltip on subtotals and/or blank rows in a Matrix visual?

 

Thanks,

David

@dedelman_clng unfortunately you cannot dynamically control the visibility of the tooltip. Maybe put this as an idea on the ideas forum if doesn't exist already.

Hi @dedelman_clng 
No, unfortunately, the tooltip will show up in every row of the matrix including totals & subtotals.
The maximum you can do is workarounds with the object on the tooltip that will be white when hovering on the unwanted rows + some message to the user. 
Something like :

if this can help I  attached a pbix, you can follow my steps.
