Is there a way to display a popup chart on click of a cell in a matrix?

I have a matrix visual. I want to popup a chart when a row is clicked on the matrix similar to how a KPI matrix custom visual does.

Is this possible?

I would recommend checking out Report Page Tooltips.

Hi all, I'm new here.
There is any chance to open a popup window clicking on a matrix table that it isn't a tooltip?
This functionality make the opportunities to view some data's on mouse over and the sizes are predefined. Instead of this tooltip I need to open a popup with mine defined sizes and it will be open only clicking on a row and preferred, clicking only on a field of the row.
Is it possible?

Thanks in advance.
Cheers,
Michele.

Thanks. This seems to work on the report. But when I pin the page as a dashboard, I see that the tooltip appears the first time dashboard is loaded after pinning. Thereafter it doesnt show the tooltip once I reload the dashboard. Is this a known issue?

I am showing the tooltip in a matrix visual.

Wow, you are absolutely 100% correct. After I pinned a Live page the first time I go to that page the tooltip page comes up. But, after refresh, just the normal tooltip comes up, not the page. I'd say that is an issue/bug.

Hmm, I've never tried a report page tooltip after pinning a page as a live page on a dashboard, I'll have to give that a try.
