It is possible to put a tooltip on a single cell of my alv? I know that it is possible in a column by a field catalog, but what about single cell?

I have ALV with icon like that, which is called via cl_gui_alv_gridv

enter image description here

I want information about this item in tooltip when I hover mouse over this icon

The information on how to display a symbol with a tooltip is easily available if you google for "site:help.sap.com tooltip icon". Since you seem to be unable to find it, here is the actual link. Make the target field large enough (132 characters is a common size), then use the function ICON_CREATE.

If you don't want an icon to appear, you can use ICON_SPACE. And since the tooltip is contained in the value of each cell, of course it is possible to have different tooltips for different cells.

  • It is possible if i want more than 132 characters ? – shmoolki Jan 20 '15 at 11:40
  • I'd say that even if it was possible, it would not be sensible since tooltips do not wrap at the screen border, as far as I know. – vwegert Jan 20 '15 at 13:57
  • When i use your method with icon_space No icon appears, but the cell is greatly ellargit, it is possible to avoid this? – shmoolki Jan 21 '15 at 14:33
