Get cross-highlight context for tooltip measure
Hi Al_Stoyanovsky,
Based on my test, it seems to be that only the Values(not the Tooltips) can be cross-highlighted for visuals in Power BI currently. So I would suggest you add it as an idea on Power BI Ideas forum to improve Power BI on this feature. :smileyhappy:
Regards
Oh well, guess it's time to accept that this is Ideas material...

Hi v-ljerr-msft,
Guess I didn't make myself clear. I'm not looking for a way to cross-highlight the tooltip. I need to understand the DAX behind the cross-highlight functionality.
I believe the PBI engine fires some DAX queries to obtain the values it needs to display a visual. When the visual is cross-highlighted, there must be queries to get both 'usual' and cross-highlighted values. My goal is to construct a DAX measure in such a way that, when placed in the Tooltip bucket, it would calculate in the cross-highlight's filter context.
Actually this can be transformed into an Idea, to have a tooltip option for the visual to display the percentage of the cross-highlighted value vs. the 'usual' one. Given the expected timeframe for its implementation, though, I think I'll continue trying with the DAX approach for a while yet :)
