Hi @woshi_eads 
You can use unichar(10)

+ put the measure on the table (to have a it on the left and not center linke in cards)

something like :

Hi @woshi_eads 
Yep, customized tooltips work only from regular visuals.
And there is no option to customize and format of the tooltip for shapes/buttons.
As alternative, you can switch on / off the desired window with bookmarks.
