Hi @Gboyraz,

 

Yes, it is possible to remove tooltips from the Microsoft Gantt Chart 2.2.3 by following these steps:

 

  1. Open the report page in Power BI Desktop that contains the Gantt chart.
  2. Select the Gantt chart.
  3. In the Visualizations pane, click on the Format icon (paint roller).
  4. Expand the Data labels section.
  5. Set the Data labels option to Off.

This will remove the default tooltips from the Gantt chart. However, if you want to add custom tooltips, you can use the Tooltip field in the Fields pane to specify the content of the tooltip. You can use any DAX expression to create the tooltip content, including referencing other columns in your data model. To do this:

 

  1. Drag the field you want to use for the tooltip into the Tooltip field in the Fields pane.

  2. In the Visualizations pane, click on the Format icon (paint roller).

  3. Expand the Tooltip section.

  4. Check the Enable option.

  5. You can then specify the DAX expression to use for the tooltip content in the Tooltip field. For example, if you want to show the start and end dates of the task, you could use a formula like this:

    START: " & FORMAT([Start], "dd/mm/yyyy") & " END: " & FORMAT([End], "dd/mm/yyyy")

This would show the start and end dates of the task in the tooltip when you hover over it.
