Issue with Tooltips?

Hi,

 

Is there a bug with the tooltips feature? I just cannot find the tool tip in the format pane section of a visual. I have followed all the steps to create a tool tip but it doesn't seem to work. I have only tested the tooltip feature once or twice in past sonot sure if I am missing a step. This is what I did

 

1.  Enabled Tooltip from the options menu

2. opened a blank page and changed the Page Size to Tooltip and then Page View -> Actual Size

3 Created a visual

 

Next is the bit causing me problems. The instructions say that I should now see a Tooltip on the format pane. I have created a Table visual but I don't see a tooltip field anywhere. But I do see a tooltip in my other visuals such as pie charts etcs. Is it just that table visuals do not have the tooltip featurein them?

Hi @Anonymous,

 

Yes, you are right. The table visual doesn't support report tooltip page feature, as the table visual doesn't provide the tooltip property for us to specify tooltip values.
