Problem with tooltip, multi value don't work anymore

[FR5702]

Hi all, 

I need your help with a problem I didn't have before.

I created a tooltip with multiple values for a same display name, it worked before without any problem and now it's not working. I checked with my old code version and it's still not working...

My chart should show me (it's the data I use for my point) : 

And it only shows me :

What is the reason for this change ? Has there any tooltips-related changes in an update recently ? 

Thank you !

EDIT: It seems to be related to the fact that my two last arrays have the same display name, but it wasn't a problem before, so what has change ?

Tooltip Service does not support the same display names. We recommend to add a number or additional space into duplicated displayName to avoid collision.

Thank you @v-viig,

That's what I did, I add 1,2,3,... in my displayname when there is more than 1 with the same displayname.

Could you please describe use case? What do you show the same displayNames for?

Sure !

My case is the one I explain in this topic :

As I regroup, in my code, my data depending on 4 dimensions, I have some points on my chart that represents multiple lines of my original data (1 point for each group of dataPoint).

So for my users to see what lines/dataPoints are represented by this particular point, I put the name dimension of each line/dataPoint (+ the 4 dimensions) in my tooltip.

The result is this one:

 

Sorry my data is in French...

But you can see that the last 3 lines in my tooltips are "Partie prenante"/"Partie prenante1" & "Partie prenante2" which is the name dimension of my data. So I have 1 point (here it's a square) representing 3 points/lines with the same dimensions.

Previously I could have the same displayname but this solution is fine.

If it's not clear enough, tell me 🙂
