Hover over text in the title of columns matrix

Hello everyone,

 

I want to create description for title of columns in matrix:

Shelley010_0-1664369913359.png

 

So for instance when I hover over France, I want to display Europe, when I hover over Canada I want to display North America and so on. In my data I have column named continent.  With using of tooltip I just managed to display it over data of matrix, so for instance when I hover over 8587 it display Europe. 

Is there any way I can display particular continent when I hover over country?

Hi @Anonymous ,

 

You will need a continent-country table to make sure continent will be filtered by country. 

Then create a tooltip page and create a card visual, put continent in the visual.

Create a Shape and place it on the column you want to hover. 

Make fill-off and background transparent. 

Write the text in the Tooltip to be displayed. 

 

The best solution I could think of.
