# How to make text appear when hovering over codes inside tables, labels, ..?

Asked by flandsberg on 2017-05-03

Hi,

I think it is super important to have as many opportunities as possible to provide guidance/clarifications to the operators without overcrowding the cards. 

Besides the description for codelist outside of a table that can appear when hovering over each of the codes, how can I get the text in the tooltip/description to appear when hovering over anything else, including but not limited to, a specific class in a table (even when it is a “key”), the label of a table, the label of an attribute, ...).

If you have found a way to do this, please let me know!

Thanks,

Florence

Thank you for your suggestion Florence,

This is a function we will add in the coming version of Collect.
