varying tooltip for different measures?

I have 4 measures (A,B,C,D) in a bar chart.

 

Is it possible to have a tooltip that when I hover over each part it says

 

"This is measure A"

"This is measure B"

 

etc

Hi @tomi5 ,

 

First of all, you need to create a new report page to do the tooltip page.

Then in this page you can add a card:

Measure = "This is Measure A"

Then you can change the fields to space to avoid the no-need name.

Then in the tooltip page, add the measure you need to add the tooltip part.

Hope this helps you.

Hi tomi5,

 

Please try the following 

 

Measure Selected = SELECTEDMEASURE()

 

Using measure as tool tip and hover over Measure A

I want it to show "This is measure A" and "This is measure B" though, not just "Measure A" and "Measure B" which is default behaviour

Hi Tom, 

was a misunderstanding on my site. But to be honest I have no idea how to do it. Sorry! 😕

 

Best regards
