When a visualization is created, the default tooltip displays the data point's value and category. There are many instances when customizing the tooltip information is useful. Customizing tooltips provides context and information for users viewing the visual. Custom tooltips enable you to specify more data points that display as part of the tooltip.

How to customize tooltips

To create a customized tooltip, in the Fields well of the Visualizations pane, drag a field into the Tooltips bucket, shown in the following image. In the following image, three fields have been placed into the Tooltips bucket.

Once tooltips are added to Tooltips, hovering over a data point on the visualization shows the values for those fields.

There are many ways to customize tooltips, using any field available in your semantic model, to convey quick information and insights to users viewing your dashboards or reports.

Allow tooltips to auto-scale (preview)

You can change a report setting so that tooltips adjust their size automatically based on the canvas size.

In Power BI Desktop, select File > Options and settings > Options.

Under Current file, select Report settings, and select Tooltip size is affected by canvas size.

Considerations and limitations

  • Default tooltips aren't designed to contain large amounts of content, and their look and feel may change with Power BI updates. To have more control over the look and feel of the content in a tooltip, create tooltips based on custom report pages instead.
