ALV Grid Tooltip

Former Member — Tue, 23 Nov 2010 09:16:32 GMT

Hi experts,

I would like to create an "infopopup" for my ALV grid. I'm not talking about a real popup screen, I'm only talking about the "tooltip" that Little text, which displayed when the user moves the mouse pointer over an important cell, and a small text is displayed, which tells you additional information.

Is this even possible? If yes then how?

Thanks

The only available option for ALV is the tooltip for column header. You set it in the fieldcatalog (field tooltip ). No other way to have this for i.e. cell.

Hi,

I have done this for an icon in the ALV grid the logic for this is just pass the text which u want to show in the cell i.e

CONCATENATE icon_light_out+0(3) '\QRNND, CLIN pending' '@'
                INTO gt_user-term. " This is the alv field on which u want to display quick info

If you want to display qick info on text field then you have to check as the in FM they have provided a parameter

it_except_qinfo TYPE slis_t_qinfo_alv but i dont know exactly what to pass.

But if you are using it for icon then the solution which i have given is perfect.

Hi,

Thanks for the answers. Unfortunatelly, it's not icon, it's a text. ( the program is a check for excell import, if some data in the excell is wrong then the cell color is red, and there should be an info in the tooltip, which explains the red colour (e.g. wrong date format, not valid keys etc...))

Many many years ago, I've done some accessibility development, where I had to put some info for the colored cells in the tooltip.

But as far as I know, it can be one text for one colour, so, it seems, what I want is simply not possible.

Bye
