Icon map - more information about selected point in label

[Mila22]

Hello,

I'd like to ask your advice. If I use a standard map in PowerBI and hover the mouse over a selected point, the following detailed data will be displayed:

So all the detailed information that is important to me is displayed from the appropriate column of the table.

But if I use the Icon Map visual, the data is only displayed like this:

No detailed information is displayed, just the basics. Points was added to the Icon Map as Object - Image/WKT.

When working with the Icon Map visual, is there any way to get other information into the label (and to display the label only if I hover over the point) ?

Thanks for your help!

Hi @Mila22 

When a visualization is created, the default tooltip displays the data point's value and category. There are many instances when customizing the tooltip information is useful. Customizing tooltips provides context and information for users viewing the visual. Custom tooltips enable you to specify more data points that display as part of the tooltip.

For more details, please refer to:
