Display custom tooltip over the column values in a cross table in Spotfire

Question

When using Spotfire (v7.8.1), how would I display a custom tool tip over a cross table's column values?

While there is an option to customize tooltips for pie charts, I can't find one for the cross table visualization. Is there a custom expression that can edit the text on tool tip?

Any response is much appreciated!

There is no way to control tooltips for tables visuals in Spotfire

Answer 2

There is no way to directly control tooltips for a Spotfire CrossTable however you can hack extra info into a cell value by using Concatenate() and new line characters \n

UniqueConcatenate(Concatenate([CELL_VALUE],'\n',[TOOLTIP_VAL_1],'\n',[TOOLTIP_VAL_2]))

The value is wrapped in UniqueConcatenate since this counts as a aggregation function
