Report page tooltip on all objects

New report page tooltip preview feature in the March update is great. Would be nice if we had the option of adding this tooltip to visuals that previously didn't have a tooltip. For example, I have a card visual. I'd like users to get one of these mini report pages pop-up when they hover over it but as this visual doesn't have a tooltip it can't be used. Would be great if we can do this on other things like shapes and text boxes as well.

Upvote. I want to add tooltips to KPI, card, and multi-row card visuals but can't!

Yes! now that the tooltips are customizable, it is basically the best way to add extra info to visuals without overloading them visually.

Every visual (including slicers) should have the ability to have a tooltip added with general text to be able to help describe what the visual is for.

Like most of the recent comments have indicated, it is quite annoying to have the Report Page Tooltips appear on hover as you keep moving your mouse around, especially in table/matrix visuals. Would be nice to have a way to make it appear on click of a dedicated column that has a little icon instead.

I have a tab that appears underneath the page header to show when a synced slicer is active. Since a typical case would be to select a few items from a long list, I wanted to add a tooltip card to the notice listing the actually selected items. This would avoid scrolling around the list and potentially missing something. If shapes supported tooltip pages, I could do this with just the shape. At the moment, I have to use a card placed on top of the shape. 

In another case, I had a visual that I was happy with, but some extra numbers may have helped to provide context. I didn't want to clutter the screen by adding all of them to the main visual. I wanted to add a shape with a tooltip that would provide the numbers if needed.

Our reports tend to have a lot of slicers, so to get us some space I build a slicer pane. I also implemented a measure which shows which filters are used. If I use this measure as a tooltip, I cannot format it and it is quite small for my users to see it. If I can use a report page tooltip then I can display the measure in a card, and format it as I would like.


Thank you for looking into this.

Provide the option for tooltips on ALL visuals. I would like to add tooltips to a card visual in my project.

A use case for using a "report page tooltip" in buttons, for example, is that when an end-user hover over the button, it shows a .gif element where they can see how to navigate through the report.

Use Case: Info Button with link to an detailed description, on hover a small Tooltip Page shows the most relevant infos. The user can then decide if this was enough help or if he wants to click the button and be directed to more info.
