We cannot create pop up message on the report now. You can use tooltip as an alternative.

If it is not what you want, please vote your detailed idea. And there is an similar idea here.

I use a technique of using the "doughnut" visual to provide a tooltip that becomes visible when you hover over the doughnut:

 

Use doughnut visual to provide "hidden" tips for your visuals.Use doughnut visual to provide "hidden" tips for your visuals.

This is a fetching workaround! Thanks!

I am interested in more detail regarding the donut workaround.

 

Do you have a separate table for tool tips? Or perhaps multiple tables?

Is each row on the table a page in your dashboard? Or maybe a visualization on a page?

I see you show the MIN of Tooltip. Is there only 1 row in the table, thereby giving you the only record?

I created a tooltip table that has 3 columns: Tooltip (the tip title), Tip, and Tip Number.  For the doughnut to work, you've got to include the value, for which I use Tip Number and change it to the Min which happens to coincide with that tip's Tip Number.  Hope this helps.  I use the doughnut's throughout my report (100+ pages) to provide amplification, explanation, and instruction on how to use a graphic (e.g., drilldown). 

It took me a minute to understand that you (probably?) set a filter to the correct tip number on each page to show the correct tip.

Either way, I got it to work. Smiley Surprised

 

The donut is a picky visualization to use when it's so small, in that the cursor must hover over the rim (not the hole in the middle) in order for the tool tip to appear. I prefer a small pie chart - it ends up as a single colored circle which can be hovered over more easily (IMO).

 

I see how to change the background of the visualization, but I would really like to change the single pie slice to a custom color. Any ideas on that?

 

Your response was very timely and quite helpful. Thank you.

It  doesn't appear that you can adjust the data colors unless you have more than one item going into the pie chart (legend or value).  It just defaults to the first color to the right of the White and Black columns in the default color table.  Perhaps you could "force" by using custom themes and have the color you want to use as the first one in your theme json?
