image in tooltip

Hi,

I am new to Power BI. Is there a way to show a picture in the tooltip description? Lets say I am showing a barchart with student names in the x-axis and their annual performance in the y-axis. I want to be able to display student picture along with text description of the student as I hover my arrow on a particular bar (which in this case will correspond to a student) in this chart.

Any help is appreciated.

Thanks,

Anant

Hi @ananttripathi,

 

For current release od desktop, it is not possible to add image into tooltips. You could try ibarrau's workaround to see whether it suits your scenario. Besides, here's a similar idea, please vote it up.

This is not possible. The tooltip only shows summarize data. If you have the pictures in urls you can create a table marking the url column as image url and show the pictures of the respecting student when filtering them.
