Power BI, by default showing the selected fields in the report tooltip. There should be a option to discard/add fields from the tooltip. e.g It shows Index column in Map visualization, which can be discarded.

I'm sorry for the delay in updating this idea, but we have in fact made custom report page tooltips generally available as of the September release of Power BI Desktop. You can read the details in this blog post: https://powerbi.microsoft.com/en-us/blog/power-bi-desktop-september-2018-feature-summary/#tooltips Be sure to vote on other tooltip suggestions on UserVoice if you have any other specific requests.

RE: Tooltip customization on reports

Ability to remove default values from tooltips would be really useful! I've voted for it here: https://ideas.powerbi.com/forums/265200-power-bi-ideas/suggestions/37516831-remove-default-values-from-tooltips

RE: Tooltip customization on reports

I agree as well. The option of removing default values from the tooltip is needed and very much wanted.

RE: Tooltip customization on reports

Agreed with everyone. Give the option to remove default values in tooltip. I added a map with bubbles, logarithmic sizes, and I don't want the user to see the calculated number, just the basic field.

I've come across this voting page through searching for the functionality to have more control over my tooltips. Upvoting this idea.

RE: Tooltip customization on reports

I would not consider this request fulfilled as I cannot remove the default values from tooltips, should the topic be re-opened as a new topic?

RE: Tooltip customization on reports

This request is to remove the default tooltips that show. I only want the tooltips I choose to display

RE: Tooltip customization on reports

Tooltips are great but there's always a default value showing up that is a duplicate of the area you're hovering over. It looks very messy and is sometimes confusing to the customer. Why is this needed or not something that can be removed?
