There should be an option to enable custom tool tip for specific column of Matrix or Table.

Currently for given row same Tooltip is visible for all columns in matrix and table visualisation.

And block the view of the report.

RE: Tool tip for Specific Column in matrix/Table

I see a great interest on this idea - specially when you need to show completely different report tooltip page base on column/measure. I need to show a chart for a given column and then show a text card on another column. The properties field are not helping customizing this. I also tried with matrix but could not make it work either.

This is an amazing feature that should come to life. It will unlock massively the power of tables. My use case if different columns with different traffic lights (status) and then in these different tooltips I would be able to show the detailed status when you hoover on the traffic light.

Definitely needed. Unnecessarily restricts view of other columns where tooltip is not needed

RE: Tool tip for Specific Column in matrix/Table

Use Case: 
To facilitate feature for table visual to accommodate report page tooltip should show for specific field which is present in table visual. 

Benefits: 
As per the current implementation , report page tooltip is available in table visual irrespective of specific fields. If Column specific tooltip is available then we can avoid this tooltip for unwanted columns which can enhance the effectiveness of this feature in table Visual. 

Scenario:
if we make column_A as report page tooltip then on mouse hover in this field only relevant information will be available for rest of all columns it can be default tooltip of report page level tooltip based on Developers requirement.

+1 Definitely required as current solution for tables are completely hiding the tables columns !!

RE: Tool tip for Specific Column in matrix/Table

This would definitely be a useful feature. It is clear that tooltips are relevant for some columns and completely irrelevant for others. Thus, having one tooltip for an entire table is insufficient.
