If worst comes to worst, you can add a measure as NAME = 0. It's a bad workaround since 0 will display in every tooltip, but it works if you can't get population or other data associated with the geography.

    deldersveldThanks! :smileyhappy: Yep only that Tooltip now (but that's okay)

     

    EDIT: But if you actually drag a field like project number or agent name - you'll get a useful count

    Because I don't want the Lat and Long showing to confuse people and overwhelm with unnecessary info especially if you have a ton of other Measures in the Tooltips!

     

    But that works now! :smileyhappy:
