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
Desperately need to customize the tooltip, some default tooltips are confusing to users who do not expect the information (e.g. latitude, longitude on map).
Also, would like to customize tooltips for table/matrix.
RE: Tooltip customization on reports
Need the ability to fully customize tooltip content similar to Tableau. This allows the developer to significantly improve to the context of a visualization for the end user.
RE: Tooltip customization on reports
Lattitude and longitude are not very interesting in a tooltip for most users of a map.,..
RE: Tooltip customization on reports
Totally agree with this! I want to display more values so the user gets more value by looking at a snapshot in time and being able to compare to a previous or next month!
RE: Tooltip customization on reports
It's the auto-inclusion of tooltip only measures in the title that makes me want to weep. When my chart shows one measure, along with many tooltips I should have the option of including the tooltip only values in the title or not. Sure, I can set the title manually but then once you drill down to the next dimension, it's no longer valid. Currently the title cannot represent what the viz is actually showing if you use more than one dimension in a hierarchy and tool tip only measures.
RE: Tooltip customization on reports
Yes, I'm struggling to add tooltip to cards.
RE: Tooltip customization on reports
Totally agree on this one.
1. No lon lat
2. Free format text
3. Strings as a variable like name of the point!
RE: Tooltip customization on reports
Please allow text as a tooltip and sequence customization.
RE: Tooltip customization on reports
I see it as a must have feature..
RE: Tooltip customization on reports
This is desperately needed. I have many points on a map in the same city, but without being able to hover over and see location rather than Lat / Long, it is just a confusing collection of dots over the city.
A show stopper for me, so investigating other products - Power BI is not quite there yet for our needs, will check back in 18 months
