    I can only get 7 rows of data to show in a Tool Tip which means if you have 2 values and 4 series, you are missing data from the final category.

    Example:
    Line chart with 4 regions as Legend, Date for Axis, Sales for Value and add a tooltip for Budget. You would see budget and actual for 3 regions and then just actual for the 4th region.

    How does someone view the final budget value?

    Would be great to be able to momentarily hover over the tooltip that freezes it in place whilst hovered. This would allow interaction with the data in the tooltip

    Would like to have a customized tooltip and may be a time limit on how long after it should disappear

    RE: Scroll in Tool Tip

    Here we are five years later, and this feature is still definitely one I'd like to see. I have an issue currently where a visual is populated with territories and their sales values and I have a (Blank) territory category accounting for a sizeable amount. Bad data aside, my tooltip shows me which orders are the perpetrators, but I cannot look at this list or drill through to it.

    I've attempted sorting my data tables to identify the bad data as well, but this does not align with the values that the tool tip is showing me either. So yes, ideally, I'd like the tooltip to not vanish the moment I move my cursor over it.

    Much needed functionality for grid to show with scroll (Currently, can't scroll down and view those data)

    MicroStrategy provides that with information window concept easily with scroll , option to minimize, maximize or close the info window (Same as tooltip)
