I have followed the git tutorial to create an html custom visual with R. The visual is currently working if I add up to one tooltip column but crashes if I try to add more with the error:
"Aesthetics must be either lenght 1 or same as the data (754): x,y,colour,label"
I know it's possible to add more than one label to ggplot and this show correctly when using plotly specifying them as "label=c("label1","label2"...) so I am thinking that the problem has to do on how I am processing it on my script. The only line where I address tooltips is:
"geom_point(data = locations, mapping = aes(x = longitude, y = latitude, color = count, label= tooltip)"
Any help will be really appreciated, thanks in advance!
We'd recommend to send this issue to pbircvsupport@microsoft.com.
There're experienced R-script developers who might assist with this issue.

I am facing the same problem. Did you find a way to add tooltips to R visual ?
