Hi All
I have some nice and handy description for my Metrics and I wanted to add these as a tooltip to the Table Header so that customers can hover over the Field Name and see the decription in the field properties. Otherwise what's the point?
Is this possible?
Thanks
Mattie

HI @MattieG72MP,
I think it is impossible. Power bi can't get column name when you hover mouse on fields.
Current power bi only support to use tooltip to lookup fields value instead of fields name.
