Tooltip for Buttons or Images

Hello everyone!

I would like to add a tooltip to a button or images.

Unfortunately, I am missing this option for buttons or images.

Is there any chance to get this feature?

The objective is to create an Info-Button in Report that shows a tooltip. This tooltip should show some text information regarding this report.

Both buttons and images have tooltips already. You must first turn on "action", then you will see the tooltip option.

I will not give you bad advice, even if you unknowingly ask for it.

The second link is what I was looking for - the functionality does not exist on images or buttons as yet, hopefully this will become a standard feature in the future but for now this is a good work around.
