When using Cards for displaying textual Tool Tip information, oftentimes there is a wide variability in the # of characters that are required. Because Card (and Page) sizes are static, some Tool Tips will be nearly blank (with only a couple of words of text), while others fill the entire area. It would be nice to be able to resize the Card and Page Size based on the number of characters needed in the Tool Tip information in order to minimize the tooltip area shown (and maximize display of the underlying report visual).

dynamic resizing of tooltips would be wonderful! i'm new to Power BI (but not other BI tools) and am surprised this is not available.

RE: Allow Cards to dynamically resize for use in Tool Tips using Text fields

It would be great to have the ability to change the tooltip size. This makes it possible to use it as a alternative label for the measure.

When using a switch function for dynamic measures which contains different formats, you can only show the correct format as text in a tooltip. If you could resize the tooltip that will make it a lot cleaner.
