Tooltip not showing for the last date in line chart

For some reason, the tooltip that shows data points when hovering across a line chart, simply does not show for the last day of the month. Everything works fine, the data is correct, legends etc. work fine. It's just this one thing I can't get to work. I get data for the second to last day, but not the last. I have tried to expand padding to the right of the chart but that made no difference. Any ideas, anyone?

Found it!!! Thank you for pointing me towards a fresh canvas (creating the support pbix). It turns out that the limitations I had set on the x-axis range caused the problem. From a time when I struggled with other issues, I had set Minimum as f(x) Earliest Date and Maximum as f(x) Latest Date. Once I removed those restrictions, it all worked as expected. I don't understand why the conditional formatting on the axis did not work, but I'm happy to have solved it. Once again, thank you.SupportQuestion.png

The data is visible when showing as table. I will try your suggestion, but find it odd that that would be necessary. I was hoping this was a known issue with a clever solution :-).

Hi @Cadenze 

If you click on the ... in the top right and choose "Show as table" do the rows of data appear in there?

 

I appreciate this is a nuclear option but have you tried using a Report Page tooltip:

I tried the report page as a tooltip, and this one does also not show the data for the last day. Any other ideas?

Hmm I cannot recreate the issue.

Could you try with some dummy data and see if the issue persists.
If it does provide the pbix with the dummy data please.
