Dynamic Tooltip

Priya_Kulkarni_0-1730797383506.png


When you hover over a perticular line, it shows values for all the lines.
Is it possible to show a value for that particular line?

Hi @Priya_Kulkarni , hello Kishore_KVN, thank you for your prompt reply!

As far as I know, we could not achieve this dynamic tooltips.

 

While I attempted to customize the tooltips, we can create a custom tooltip page for the chart that contains only the values you need to display.

 

This way, when the mouse hovers over a data point, you can control what is displayed through the custom tooltip.


However ,it's not possible to provide separate tips for different categories because we cannot detect the action of hovering over a specific category.

 

As a workaround, you can add a slicer to filter the stage, allowing the visual to display only a specific line, which will ensure that only the corresponding value is shown when hovering.

 

Best regards,

Joyce

Yes, you have to create a custome tooltip for the same. 

 

Please refer below video for reference and for execution you may need to develop you measure and calculations from scratch.
