Restrict Report page tooltip to one column
Anonymous I did not get it working on a table visual, even when I set the tooltip column to "Summarized"
Hi, thanks for asking.
Sorry for the late reply - I was on vacation.
Did you manage to get id running or do you need help?

I did not get it running on a table visualization. I had to change my visualization to matrix, then I was able to restrict the tooltip to only one column.

This method seems very limited - the tooltip appears for all the fields specified in the Values well of the Matrix. It only reverts to the default Tooltip for the fields specified in the Rows and Columns wells.
So it seems only useful if your requirements are limited to one field in Values. - Anonymous5 years agoNot applicable
HI mike_honey
One Simple workaround is there but it may lead to loose some existing functionality of table visual . Just place textbox or any shape with 100% transparency in the table area where you don’t require report page tooltip. Not recommended solution but can ease some work in case you are displaying huge number of columns in table visual.
this workaround will disable click and scroll functionality in table visual where textbox is placed , remaining place will work as it is since we are just adding text box in certain area of table visual .
I hope Microsoft will definitely release column specific tooltip property for Table visual in coming release.Thanks
