Specifies the tooltip to be displayed when the mouse pointer hovers over the icon displayed in a table cell containing the discrete parameter value to which it is linked.

Type

string

Parent

Discreet

Remarks

Note
  • When you define tooltips for discrete values, note that, within a given <Discreets> tag, all <Discreet> tags should have a <Tooltip> tag. If no value should be defined for a particular <Discreet> tag, leave the <Tooltip> tag empty.
  • If you defined a tooltip for a particular discrete value, you cannot set the displayIconAndLabel attribute to "true".
  • For the list of placeholders that can be used inside the text of a tooltip, refer to Placeholders.

Examples

In the following example, a tooltip was defined that displays data found in other columns of the same table (see also the note regarding placeholders below).

<Discreets>
    <Discreet iconRef="CAT">
        <Display>Two</Display>
        <Value>2</Value>
        <Tooltip>Number '{pid:1003}'\ndateTime '{pid:1004}'</Tooltip>
</Discreet>
