Visual Header tooltips not turning off

I'm using August 2020 version of PowerBI Desktop and I have a slicer visual that I need to turn off the visual header for (It gets in the way of the visual header for the table).  I've turned off the toggle, but PBI is not respecting that selection.

Hi @Anonymous ,

 

Based on my test,once you have disabled the feature in desktop,it will be also activated in Service,if not,pls go to Service>format>visual header>visual header tooltip icon:off. to make it disabled.

@Anonymous , If you disable the visual header. It will get disabled only in Power BI service. In Desktop you will continue to see that.

Thank you for the response, but unfortunately, the visual header tooltip still shows up in PB service.  Is there something else I might be missing?

Give one try to below setting: File -> Options and Settings -> Options -> Report Settings" and check the box "Hide the visual header in reading view". Then save this file and publish it on service. And if you are facing issue on PBI service so refer this full thread: https://community.powerbi.com/t5/Desktop/disable-interaction-for-header-visuals/m-p/1271949

Thank you, but I don't want to turn them off for all visuals on the page.  The slicer tooltips are interfering with my table tooltip - I need the table one to be visual so the user can export the data.
