Hi @jjustingkm 

There is no native option to do that, but you can use Comments and Descriptions of your master dimensions and measures:

 

1 - Create a master dimension

2 - Create a master measure

3 - Create a table

4 - With the rigth button of mouse, click in Show Details

You may try to add comments within the data-model, like:

Comment field | Qlik Cloud Help

Another attempt may to adjust the label for the dimension with an expression like:

= 'MyDimension' & chr(10) & 'My comment ...'
