It would be useful to be able to change the background colour and transparency of the tooltip to highlight and colour-code, and to allow parts of the visual to be seen behind it. The latter would be extremely useful when comparing data in visuals and for when you have a tooltip with a lot of measures listed as the tooltip can often get in the way.

RE: Change Tooltip Background Colour and Transparency
This is definitely needed for report page tooltips. This will save me a lot of mental straining, which is the aim of presentation anyways.
RE: Change Tooltip Background Colour and Transparency
Transparency of report page tooltip desperately needed for decent UX! 🙏
RE: Change Tooltip Background Colour and Transparency
Shame, shame, shame :D How can tooltip from a page loose its transparency settings when using on other pages.......Please, please, please, fix that up for users :)BRDaniel
RE: Change Tooltip Background Colour and Transparency
It's worth adding that transparency is required for report page tooltips.
RE: Change Tooltip Background Colour and Transparency
I would also like to have more options on tooltips (transparency background + position + ability to scroll on the tool tip tab for instance)
RE: Change Tooltip Background Colour and Transparency
Would like to see a tooltip with a transparent background option - essentially no background so that the text in the tooltip in is the foreground
RE: Change Tooltip Background Colour and Transparency
I would also love having ability to have different tooltip based on the visual context.
e.g possibility to have a tooltip specific to a "category column" of a matrix and another one different when hovering on the summarized values.
For now you can only have one tooltip for a given visual.
RE: Change Tooltip Background Colour and Transparency
'Native, dark tooltip give very awesome UX when background is configured slightly transparent.
Power BI propose to configure transparency, both :
- in the parent visual's "tooltip / background" section (usually)
- in the tooltip page's background setting
Bur none of them end up with some transparency on the actual tooltip.
This is not rational (big ?). And this is disapointing.
RE: Change Tooltip Background Colour and Transparency
I second that. Please add more controls of the tooltip (eg holding Ctrl button would make it stick so that a hyperlink within the tooltip can be selected) including the default positioning option per visual i.e. top/bottom/left/right.
