Not passing context to Tooltip page
Months are not hardcoded in the example I provided, they are added automatically once you have data for the respective month.
I don't believe I can? Isn't it still true that new users can't post a pbix?
You're doing that in a regular column chart. I need a matrix for the intersection of employee, task, and date.
Can you turn yours into a matrix and still have it work? I am making the metric value into a sparkline and making the sparkline a column instead of line.

It will always display all the months

Oh, okay. I think I understand what you're trying to do here. You want to interact with each data point in your sparkline bar chart? If that's what you're trying to do, I doubt that this is possible because a sparkline bar chart is more like an image. It applies to the entire cell, and you can't hover over it to see the value of a single bar.
Any ideas on some other way to handle this kind of reporting?
It is honestly shocking to me that PowerBi can not do a simple labeled line/bar chart with more than one thing on it. This really isn't an incredibly complicated thing to ask a reporting application to do.

Yes you can use SVGs to label bar charts in matrix table , attached is the sample I have created
a quick tutorial if you are new to SVGs : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YgyXoXzjff4
SVG isn't PBI Certified, though, can't use it in production. Is there anything else to use that is certified?
Absolutely, truly, mystifyingly baffling that Power BI can't handle LABELLING A SPARKLINE.
