Hi Team,
I want to display values from a categorical column which contains string values using tooltip and not the count or distinct count in bublle chart.
How can I acheive this, would be really helpful if somebody can solve this problem.
This is how it is coming for me.
Thanks in advance!!

Ali Asgar
Hi, @Anonymous
Can you please elaborate on what you are trying to achieve or draw a simple picture to show your expected visual so it is clear on what needs to be implemented?

I am creating a bubble chart where I am adding a column (categorical) in the tooltip to get more information, however, when I add the column to tooltip parameter it turns out that it shows either the count of all the items or just the count of distinct values but I want the values of that particular column and not the count of those values.
@Anonymous , You can try tooltip page -https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/power-bi/desktop-tooltips
Or create a measure like
concatenatex(Table, Table[Brand], ",")
and use in tooltip
@amitchandak , Thanks for the reply.
I am new to Power BI and I am not able to create a new measure from the above command, do you have another way to solve this and the tooltip page also gives the information for aggregation of data and not displaying individual values for categorical column.
