Resposta

Tooltips are details that appear when you hover the pointer over one or more marks in the view. Currently, the function of exporting the image with tooltips is not built in the product.

Consider the following workarounds.

Option 1:

Use a screenshot capture tool to create the image.

Option 2:

Add the tooltip contents to a dashboard and export the image of the dashboard.
