Tooltip, Drilldown or Signet button ?

Hi,

 

I have quite different visuals for which I would like to add a tooltip that refers to the same report page. This tooltip will display a table containing the details of the values since my values are usually sums.
I tried to set up a tooltip but the usage is not perfect for what I need, I can’t scroll down in the info tablebubble without disappearing and above all, the values of the table remain the same all the time no matter what visual I add the tooltip.
In concrete terms, I know that I am using this tool badly.

For now, I use a system of buttons that refers to a report page where I put the details of my table, but I find this system heavy and difficult to replicate.

Hi @AntoineRobln ,
If you could provide more details, may be snapshots it will be helpfull to understand your requirement. 
According to what I understood, you can try creating a tooltip page and use it for all the visuals.

Steps to follow : 
1) Create a new Page for tooltip as shown below and hide it:

2) change the below highlighted settings for your tooltip page :

3) now for your original report page, go to each VISUAL and from format your visual page, configure below options :

below is the final result which will be visible when you hover on data points :

Also, if you want to have dynamic data coming when you click on any data point in the visual then we could setup a drill-through page. (Please follow link : https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/power-bi/create-reports/desktop-drillthrough)

Please let me know if this does'nt work for you and share additional details for your requirement.

Thanks,
