I'd like to suggest a way to freeze and interact with custom tooltips. Or even drill-through from within the tooltip.
In our company we are using ever more reports with increasingly sophisticated tooltips, enriching otherwise plain tables with figures. It is a powerful and low-impact way for the end-user to quickly get a thorough impression of the data behind the numbers. However, it often raises next questions, to drill-through on the data presented, or to show a couple more lines with details.
In such cases, without having to resort to regular drill-through options (since they tend to get a bit chaotic when there are many drill-through targets within the workspace already), it would be very nice to be able to freeze the tooltip in order to interact with it. This could be done for instance by keeping the shift-key pressed when hovering over the data with the mouse, or by clicking a pin icon, or rightclick -> show tooltip, or ....
Imho it would really enrich the user experience, interacting more intuitively with a report. I couldn't find any similar threads, forgive me if I've missed one.
Cheers,
Niels
