This is wizardy!. Thank you! When it works, Power BI is so lovely. But when you have to deal with things like " " being necessary, I always want to just throw my computer at the wall.

[@sidpd]

don't think just throw it 🤣🤣🤣

[@lostinswitz]

[@bolopez9642]

So clever! smiled at the end. Thank you for sharing.

[@juliancm01]

You are the best, good material and funny videos

[@rcb3921]

Very Nice! I was trying something similar with other visuals -- but they don't show their tool tips unless you are actually hovering over the slice or bar or whatever is generally shown. Card along with [Measure] = " " was the secret sauce. Thanks so much.

[@KarenH-b9n]

[@MankyHamster]

thanks for this ... I love a good hack ... nad this one is SUPER useful!

[@joaquinmaverick82]

Thanks!! Its a great and clever solution

[@brandontrinwith]

Hello. I appreciate your helpful videos. I tried your method for an icon image of a chain link used to navigate to a webpage. I used the card as a custom tooltip with a screenshot of the website so users will hove over the chain link image and see the website image that the link goes to. However...because of the layering. When I click the image it no longer navigates to the site. Any workaround ideas? TIA

[@shaikyasmin2739]

Thank you for this video 🙂

[@lessapwb]

I think isn't working anymore :/

[@james_msuk]

Has this been fixed since? Seems insane there is an information button but you can't use a tooltip page correctly with it.

[@Saif_Ali_Khan_1301]

[@datapears]

Hi Ravi, it's still on the way! I created a waitlist for people who are interested in my new course (will come out later this year). Just use the link below to get notified once I have the official date :) mailchi.mp/bff495eff52b/power-bi-report-design-bootcamp

[@andywilkinson3695]

I've followed this completely but nothing appears when I hover over the blank measure card I created

[@Helloworld_RNG]

me too. Have you figured out?

[@kassiowifried]

Good job

[@datapears]

Thanks!!

[@hamedazhang1985]

Perfetta ❤

[@LearningNeverEndz]

how do we put product images using tooltip?

[@rk06ut]

Hello data pear, somehow the space measure is not working, the custom tooltip do not fires up, and when i use any printable char, it shows the tooltip but only on hovering over the character. I was expecting the tooltip will pop if we hover inside the card visual including the blank

[@chingfhen6534]

ingenious 😂

[@mikemarchessault860]

Delicious

[@johnnywinter861]

Sneaky!
