Helper VOne Tooltip page for multiple charts
Hi, I have multiple charts on a page and each one contains different data.
Each one is configured to having the same basic data fields (Description - Sales - CountSold)
I can easily create tool tips for each chart but i currently would have to create one Tooltip page for each chart.
Is there a way to create a tooltip page that changes depending on which chart the person is clicking on the ?
Finding a way to do this would reduce the 6 pages of help tooltips to one.
Thanks, Steven
Hi StevenT
It depends on the context of the visualizations and the tooltip. If it's the exact same tooltip that appears from different visualizations and only its context (filtering) changes, then it's possible—just configure the tooltip to be pulled from the same source for all the visualizations you want.
For example, if I want to see top 5 products on the tooltips by country and year from the matrix or by salesmen in the graph - it works :If we're talking about completely different tooltips with different visualizations, then it's not possible, and you'll need to create a separate page for each visualization to serve as a tooltip.
The pbix with the example is attached

StevenTThanks Rita. Unfortunately each one is a separate datasource. I was afraid that your answer would be the one I'd have to go with .
But it's still an answer. And I'll check out the download. Thanks very much!
