Title: Analysis Studio screen tips
Post by: jmoore on 29 Mar 2007 09:39:06 AM
I added screen tips to my dimensions in Framework Manager. They show up fine in Report Studio and Query Studio on mouseover. Why don't they show up in Analysis Studio?

That raises another question. Is there a way to put a screen tip so that it appears when the user is looking at the report (AFTER the report is run..in Cognos Viewer/Dashboard). Screen Tip appearing in RS is only for developers, not for users.

Hi,

Chart and map reports in Report Studio have a tooltips property that you can enable to turn on tooltips when the report output is being displayed.  For lists and crosstabs in Report Studio, you would need to enable tooltips via your own coding mechanism - probably the easiest is to include HTML items around the item(s) in question, utilising span tags.  Of course, this would not be a viable solution for non-HTML rendering types, though.

Best regards,

MF.

That's exactly what our application does. In bulk.
