topic How to implement the same tooltip mechanism used in QV objects in an extension? in QlikView https://community.qlik.com/t5/QlikView/How-to-implement-the-same-tooltip-mechanism-used-in-QV-objects/m-p/264196#M1240602 <HTML><HEAD></HEAD><BODY><P>When the mouse hovers a graphical object in the ajax client, a request is made to the QlikView server to ask for the tooltip to display at the mouse location, allowing the tooltip text to be computed only when needed. Is there a way to implement the same behavior in an extension object? I thought about adding an expression to my extension object to hold the tooltips of every row but it seems to be a waste of computing time and bandwidth since most of the tooltips will never be display, so I am looking for a cleaner solution.</P></BODY></HTML> Mon, 26 Jan 2026 16:26:21 GMT 2026-01-26T16:26:21Z How to implement the same tooltip mechanism used in QV objects in an extension? https://community.qlik.com/t5/QlikView/How-to-implement-the-same-tooltip-mechanism-used-in-QV-objects/m-p/264196#M1240602 <HTML><HEAD></HEAD><BODY><P>When the mouse hovers a graphical object in the ajax client, a request is made to the QlikView server to ask for the tooltip to display at the mouse location, allowing the tooltip text to be computed only when needed.
