Adding ToolTips with Table DataBinding

I've created a custom visual (combination scatter plot and dual-line graph) and am attempting to add tooltips. I used table databinding and followed an example I found here for assigning an Identity. For some reason, the tooltips are each only showing one line (employee ID) and the ID is the same for each tooltip.

 

import DataViewObjects = powerbi.extensibility.utils.dataview.DataViewObjects;

module powerbi.extensibility.visual {
    "use strict";
    interface DataPoint {
        grade: number;
        minimum: number;
        maximum: number;
    };

    interface ViewModel {
        dataPoints: DataPoint[];
        rangePenData: RangePoint[];
        maxValue: number;
        minValue: number;
        maxGrade: number;
        minGrade: number;
    };

    interface RangePoint {
        grade: number;
        rangePen: number;
        employeeID: string;
        tooltips: VisualTooltipDataItem[];
        identity: ISelectionId[];
    }

    export class Visual implements IVisual {

        private host: IVisualHost;
        private svg: d3.Selection<SVGElement>;
        private structureGroup: d3.Selection<SVGElement>;
        private yPadding: number = 0.1;
        private scatterGroup: d3.Selection<SVGElement>;
        private xAxisGroup: d3.Selection<SVGElement>;
        private yAxisGroup: d3.Selection<SVGElement>;

        private settings = {
            axis: {
                x: {
                    padding: 25
                },
                y: {
                    padding: 50
                }
            },
            border: {
                top: 10
            }
        }

        constructor(options: VisualConstructorOptions) {
            this.host = options.host;
            this.svg = d3.select(options.element)
                .append("svg")
                .classed("vchart", true);
            this.structureGroup = this.svg.append("g")
                .classed("structure-group", true);
            this.scatterGroup = this.svg.append("g")
                .classed("scatter-group", true);
            this.xAxisGroup = this.svg.append("g")
                .classed("x-axis", true)
            this.yAxisGroup = this.svg.append("g")
                .classed("y-axis", true)
        }

It seems the issue is related to sending numbers as values to Tooltip API but numbers are not supported and numbers must be converted to string explicitly.

Please use this code snippet in the code:

 viewModel.rangePenData.push({
                    grade: <number>view1.rows[i][1],
                    rangePen: <number>view1.rows[i][3],
                    employeeID: <string>view1.rows[i][0],
                    identity: this.getSelectionIds(view2, this.host),
                    tooltips: [{
                        displayName: "Employee ID:",
                        value: `${view1.rows[i][0]}`
                    },
                    {
                        displayName: "Range Penetration:",
                        value: `${view1.rows[i][3]}`
                    }
                ]
                });
