To configure tooltip for a form item, provide the tooltip text for the form item in the properties file (for example, common_en_US.properties) as raw-key value pair as follows:

<Form Item ID>_TOOL_TIP = <tooltip text>

-- For example,
TENOR_TOOL_TIP = Loan duration


The tooltip will be applied to the form item ID (for example, TENOR) wherever it is used in the application.


Tooltips for form items might not display correctly in case of jQuery code because of conflict with TBS, which is Canvas platform's default JS framework. To overcome this conflict, use the global (application-level) property, 'enableTooltipNoConflict', by setting it to 'True' to enable display of tool tips for form items when using jQuery. The default value for 'enableTooltipNoConflict' is 'False'.

//For example, in CT_Ready.js, use 'enableTooltipNoConflict' property as follows:
canvas.env.options.enableTooltipNoConflict = true
