how to edit tooltips - change order, change number format

[bsz412]

Hi, 

I have a question regarding tooltips. I would need to change the order of the measures on my tooltips. 

one example: 

I have a combined chart with these inputs: 

If I hover over the total sell-out bar, this is my tooltip. 

My question is, on the tooltip, is there any way to get rid of values that are by default there? in this case year month or total sell-out?

Is there a way to change the order, let's say to have the total sell-out on top, year-month in the middle etc?

If I want to display the amount as 59.7M - how can I do that? 

Also, if these changes are possible only with creating a customized tooltip, is there any visual that gives the same, or very similar layout as this "classic" tooltip?

Hi @bsz412 ,

You can insert a text box on the tooltip page, then edit the content as needed, adjust the font size, font color, and background color. Then resize the page.

Here is my example.

If the problem is still not resolved, please provide detailed error information or the expected result you expect. Let me know immediately, looking forward to your reply.
Best Regards,

Hi @bsz412 ,

Download link for the custom visual file in this page

This was made with our Custom Visual creator tool PBIVizEdit.com. With this tool,

• anyone, irrespective of technical skills, can create their own visuals
• 15 minutes to create a visual from scratch
• opens up many additional attributes to edit (for e.g. labels, tooltips, legends position, etc)

Give this a shot and let us know if you face any problem/errors.
You can use the editor to modify your visual further (some modifications cannot be done in Power BI window and have to be in editor).

Thanks,
Team PBIVizEdit
