I have a table that is new to my users of my dashboard. I would like to provide a column definition when users hover over the column header. I have built the table with the definitions and the column lables as the link. But I cannot figure out if it is possible to do this. Does anyone know how to do this?
This is a work around, but I am looking for something that will link the column header label to a list of definitions in a corresponding table, and return the defintion from the table as a tool tip on hover.
In other words, I want the first hover description to contain the information from the second.
This is the current hover definition for the table.
This the work around with the extended column header definition.
Thanks for all of your assistance.
