I have a tooltip that references a bar chart visualization with more rows than can be displayed at once. When I apply this tooltip to a report visual and hover over it I cannot click and drag the scrollbar without closing the tooltip itself, nor can I use my mouse's scrollwheel to slide the scrollbar either.

Apart from adding the tooltip visual to my report page, is there a setting or toggle to lock the tooltip in place or otherwise make the scrollbar usable in Power BI?

    You can change the size of the tooltip window, though I haven't found any way to make the tooltip interactable. Commented Mar 19, 2019 at 20:10
  • @DavidBrowne-Microsoft drillthroughs would work, but make it more difficult for at-a-glance reporting. I'll look into it further. Commented Mar 19, 2019 at 20:27

Users currently cannot interact with objects on report page tooltips (scrolling, visuals like slicers, etc.). Best to resize the tooltip page height or re-think the visual (e.g. "Top 5" in bar chart only) to avoid the scrollbar if possible.
