Separate Tooltip Report Page Per Matrix Field

Hello,

 

I wanted to have different tooltip report page being displayed depending on the column being hovered on in my matrix visual. I understand this is not feasible with table visual but read it can be done with matrix visual.

What is important here is that I do not want to customize the content of one report tooltip but have a set of different report tooltip pages and pick up the proper one depending on what is being hover on as column field. This is because some column requires chart tooltip and some other only card text tooltip, etc ...

 

I tried to play with the field "Show my tooltip when this field is summarized" but was not changing anything actually.

 

Thanks for any support.

I have resolved my issue and giving details here in case it would support anyone in the future:

 

To have dedicated report tooltip page, you need to not specify a particular report page in the below menu but let it to "Auto" so that your field "Show my tooltip when field is summarized/Categorized" is taking precedence. This way your visual will now when to display which tooltip report by itself:

  • On your matrix visual:

  • On your tooltips pages and to be customized according field triggering:

What version of PowerBi is this supposed to work in? My organization is still on January 2022, and specifying auto does not make different report page tooltips appear based on the highlighted column, despite having that column specifically linked to the report page that's expected to show.
