Power BI Button Tooltip Does Not Support Multiline Display
Hello Team,
I am using Power BI in the workspace (Power BI Service) on a Windows system. When configuring a button's tooltip, I would like to display the tooltip text across multiple lines (for example, having the content in parentheses appear on a new line).
However, I have found that neither keyboard shortcuts (such as Alt+Enter, Ctrl+Enter, or Shift+Enter) nor pasting multi-line text from an external editor enable line breaks in the tooltip. All the text is always displayed in a single line, regardless of formatting.
This limitation makes it difficult to present longer or more structured tooltip information in a clear and readable way
The issue I am facing is just like this ticker: https://community.fabric.microsoft.com/t5/Desktop/Display-Text-Tooltip-when-hovering-on-quot-i-quot-button-into/m-p/3017597
Is there any way to enable or support multiline display in button tooltips ? If not, is this feature planned for future updates?
Thank you very much for your attention and support!

Sergii24 Thank you very much for the suggestion — it's a great approach.
One minor downside, however, is that it requires users to move their mouse twice before they can access the relevant information.
Would you happen to have any alternative ideas that might help reduce the number of user interactions?Sergii24 Thank you very much for the suggestion — it's a great approach.
