Title: Creating custom Tool Tips or a Glossary
Post by: edgy on 20 Nov 2008 01:40:28 PM
What are the capabilities in Analysis studio 8.4 to create custom Tooltips or a Glossary of definitions of data items and best practices? We would like users to be able to "mouse over" an item and see a tool tip describing an action or item.
An alternative would be a Glossary with such items that can be used as a reference source.

Cognos 8v4 will include tooltips, but I am not sure if those will workin Analysis Studio.  BSP Software's MetaManager tool can also add tooltips as well as additional functionality.
