Hi @wdrain 

You can refer to the following example.

Creata a measure to union the fields of the table and the related value

Measure = "Computer Name"&":"&" "&MAX('Table'[Computer Name])&UNICHAR(10)&"Model"&":"&" "&MAX([Model])&UNICHAR(10)&"Operating System"&":"&" "&MAX([Operating System])

The UNICHAR(10) is Line breaks.

Then put the measure in a card visual and hide the label of the measure

Hi Zolo

My question specifically is how do you format the ToolTip to match the default tooltip, creating a tooltip I know how to do, I need help on formatting it to match the default tooltip or help on how to add additional columns to the default tooltip.

The link provided does not provide any guidance on my specific question.
