Formatting the Default Tooltip via Json Theme file

[Anonymous]

Hi All,

Trying to format the Default Tooltip - change black background colour / font colour / size / etc... (any and all attributes ) but via the Json theme file - I know its possible - done it before but mislaid the details... and sadly a web trawl to no avail...

Please note I am not seeking to create a Report Tip and update all my visuals... its just the json theme file syntax I am after to set the default tooltip attributes.

Many thanks in advance 🙂

Is this the only way we can change the default font size for a tool tip? We're embedding Power BI charts onto a webpage but on mobile the tool tip font is massive as it doesn't seem to be responsive.

Hi @Anonymous ,

You should know that we cannot set the theme of tooltips by .json file in power bi desktop.

I think you meant to use the report page as a tooltip, so change the theme of report page by .json file.

Basic json format:

{
       "name": "St Patrick's Day",
       "dataColors": ["#568410", "#3A6108", "#70A322", "#915203", "#D79A12", "#bb7711", "#114400", "#aacc66"],
       "background":"#FFFFFF",
       "foreground": "#3A6108",
       "tableAccent": "#568410"
   }

A basic theme that defines these colors might appear as follows:

{
    "name": "Custom Theme",
    "dataColors": [
        "#118DFF",
        "#12239E",
        "#E66C37",
        "#6B007B",
        "#E044A7",
        "#744EC2",
        "#D9B300",
        "#D64550",
        "#197278",
        "#1AAB40"
    ],
    "good": "#1AAB40",
    "neutral": "#D9B300",
    "bad": "#D64554",
    "maximum": "#118DFF",
    "center": "#D9B300",
    "minimum": "#DEEFFF",
    "null": "#FF7F48"
}

Hi @v-yingjl 

Semantics on what I meant or how you interpretted what I said but yes I was after the Json code to change to the default tooltip in the Theme... and the good news is that I have found it 🙂

{
	"name":				"Report Theme Name",

	"visualStyles":	{	"*":	{	"*":	{	"visualTooltip": 	[{	"type": 			"Default",
																		"titleFontColor": 	{"solid": {"color": "#000080"}},
																		"valueFontColor": 	{"solid": {"color": "#000080"}},
																		"background": 		{"solid": {"color": "#F0F0F0"}}
																	}]
											}
								},
					}
}
