Formatting tooltips

Related products: Windows GUI

Currently only very limited HTML-formatting is supported for tooltips.

I'd like that a fuller range is possible so that I can add:

  • (un)ordered lists
  • images
  • tables
  • headers
  • references
  • etc.

If this is not possible I'd like some functionality to include an information-button behind columns in a field in which information like the above can be shown (as e.g. pop-up).

Exactly the same thing I struggled with the tooltip in the scheduler extender. There's an option to enable HTML-formatting in a tooltip. Tried several things but to no avail. 

I'd like to add as well that if this isn't possible in the near future that the documentation gets updated on what is possible. It took me quite some time to figure out what was, or wasn't possible.


Unfortunately, the components we use only support a limited set of HTML tags in the tooltips (<i>, <b>, <u>, <font>, <a>, <br> and <p>). We will update the documentation accordingly.
