Is it possible to have helpToolTip for a text in a editable grid?

I have a requirement to have a helpToolTip for a text in a cell present in an editable grid.

 

I've added a textField with helpToolTip in a row of an editable grid. However helpToolTip doesn't appear on the text.

 

Am I missing something? Or it's not possible to have a help icon in an editable grid?

 

Thanks in advance.

  • If the helptooltip is short, try to make use of textField's placeholder. Remember if the grid columns are less then the placeholder helps in educating user otherwise it hides the information. This method might make user experience better.
  • Dastagiri D (dastagirid) Thanks for your input. I tested text fields inside editable grid with values for 'helpToolTip' and 'placeholder' parameter. Seems like these parameters don't have any impact inside editable grid.

    Attached is the code and screenshot.

     

    a!gridLayout(

               label: "",

               labelPosition: "ABOVE",

               headerCells: {

                 a!gridLayoutHeaderCell(label: "Header Label")

               },

               columnConfigs: {

                 a!gridLayoutColumnConfig(

                   width: "DISTRIBUTE"

                 )

               },

               rows: {

                 a!gridRowLayout(

                   contents: {

                     a!textField(

                       label: "",

                       labelPosition: "ABOVE",

                       instructions: "hello",

                       helptooltip: "help text",

                       placeholder: "help text",

                       value: "Sample text",

                       saveInto: "Sample text",

                       refreshAfter: "UNFOCUS",

                       requiredmessage: "hello",

                       readonly: true,

                       validations: {}

                     )

                   }

                 )

               },

               selectionSaveInto: {},

               validations: {},

               shadeAlternateRows: true

             )

           }  

  • As you mentioned earlier, helptooltip for text field does not work under grid. Only you can make use of placeholder(Only when the field width is wide enough to display placeholder's text).
