Title: HOVERING OVER PROMPTS and REPORT DATA ITEM
Post by: gosoccer on 28 Dec 2015 07:35:06 PM
Please don't tell me this is the only way to have HOVERING going on in Cognos?

Very simple solution use HTML Item in the data item heading.
using the
following code.
Place one HTML item at start of the Column header with code
: <p title="Hover Tool Tip">,

place another HTML item at end of the column
header to close the html tag with code : </p>

Now when you run the report and hover the mouse over the header you should
see the test pop up.

Also, is there anyway to do it centerally so no all developers have to put it in
every single Report Author Report?

Thx for your time. :) :)

You can define the tooltip property for each query subject item in Framework Manager.
