Showing a tooltop on line chart with multiple values

Hi,

 

In the below chart, one Tool is selected (Adobe Photoshop) and I can display the tooltip using: ToolTipToolName = VALUES(SurveyDataTransposed[Tool]) as a Measure:

If multiple tools are selected, this causes an error:

Is there a way to show the tooltip for each tool in each column?

 

Thanks,

Dan

The error messages is quite straightforward, to get a scalar value, check below measure.

 

ToolTipToolName =
CONCATENATEX (
    VALUES ( SurveyDataTransposed[Tool] ),
    SurveyDataTransposed[Tool],
    ","
)

Hi Eric,
