    Hi joshua1990 ,

     

    You may create a Tooltip page for the Matrix visual, put [Description] and the specific measures ore columns into a visual of Tooltip page , then go to main report page, select the Format section and choose the Tooltip card you created , for reference: Create tooltips based on report pages in Power BI Desktop. Based on your data, I have created a tooltip for the Matrix visual. You may download the pbix file from here.

     

    When you hover the fields of the Matrix , the Tooltip will appear.

What I'm looking for is a column format option that lets you display a Tip for the column.  For example, the column name is "Profit", Column Tip is "Sales - Costs = Profit".  When I hover over an "i" in the corner of the column name box, the Column Tip would display.  Or, could we have the Description of the field show like it does when you hover over it in the Data Visual Tool?
