    Either override the measure DP at visual-level on your details tab page (if you don't need the tooltip to show the higher DP), or create a new measure "myMeasureZeroDP" which is just '= [myMeasure]' but can be set to zero DP for pages that need it, and the original measure with 2 DP can be used on pages that need it.

    Another option would be to create your own Tooltips, then you can display them however you want.

    For what it's worth, I can't imagine anybody needs to see 55 cents on the end of a $199m value.
