Tooltip shows same table/values

Hello all,

 

I have a question related to tooltips and I couldn't figure it out why.

 

I have a table visual(let's name it 'reason table') and other page named as 'tooltip1' and when I hover on rows on 'reason table' it shows the table in 'tooltip1' page which is I want.

 

But it doesn't change when I hover different rows on 'table visual'

 

In 'reason table' I use 'reason' field which is coming from calculated table but also I use same field in 'drag tooltip fields here' filter in 'tooltip1' page .

 

I didn't understand why it is happening? How can I solve this?

Any comment would be helpful

Thanks a lot!

@Anonymous , if you have created a table(Calculated) and if that table is not joined with the dimension you want to filter. The table is as good as static content.

Any table created using some calculations will not take slicer/filter values. They have to be joined back with filter/dimension tables to do so.

 

Hope steps are correct.

Can you please share the screenshot of what is happening? In the meantime can you please make sure that you have enabled "Keep All Filters" on at Tooltip page

@amitchandak I am facing a similar issue. There are 3 filters on my dashboard which I am trying to add to my measure. I am getting an error stating that the parameter is not correct type. Please guide me on this.

 

This is my DAX

Current Week Totals_CF =
CALCULATE(SUM(fred_h8_banking[Amt in Bn_CF]), FILTER(ALLSELECTED(fred_h8_banking), fred_h8_banking[Week Rank_CF] = MAX(fred_h8_banking[Week Rank_CF])))
Need to add filter for criteria 1,2 and 3 where all the filters are string.
