Hi @karvsha,
While you are correct that pivot tables do not have a tool tip option, the scenario you’d like to create is not exactly possible through tool tips anyways. Tool tips are designed to highlight the information/fields that are creating the results being shown in the visual and can not be used as a text box.

As a work around for your instance, you’ll have to utilize the addition of text boxes and to make them interchangeable, you’ll have to incorporate a parameter that will show/hide each specific text box based on your parameter selection.

It would be nice to have a tool tip feature that allows you to incorporate free hand text, so I’ll mark this as a feature request to promote visibility to the support team.

Let us know if you have any additional questions.

Thank you Brett, yeah it would be very helpful for users to understant exactly what the columns is or even understand calculation behind a columns - they would save time by not have to navigating to the wiki everythime they want to understand a column.

Looking forward to that feature. would there be an estimate on for a feature request ?
