Tooltips not working in D365 forms on column/field labels

Posted on by 8

Wave 2 2021 isn't showing tooltips when hovering over the labels of columns/fields on the form.

Prior to Wave 2 being enabled, hovering over the label shows the column/field name and description, which is really useful to Users.

    is this only for on-premise? Our online CRM already shows 9.2?

    Yep, meant to come back and say that it seemed to be a preview only feature.

    Thanks for highlighting the updated documentation. I would expect the control to be in the admin portal, but nothing is present in my environments.

    According to the description of this new 'feature', we should be able to turn tooltips back on; however, I am unable to find the feature setting anywhere.

    "Column description tooltips can be enabled through a feature control environment setting, which will then display the tooltip descriptions to all users"

    It's weird isn't it? My client is so reliant on tooltips we are having to try and come up with a way to do this in code for just 6 months. If anyone has some simple solutions to replace them I'd love to hear about it!

    Thanks for the reply Venkatesh Nadar . Disappointing that there will be 6+ months without anything. I would have thought that a tooltip that doesn't meet the accessibility standards is better than nothing.

    Hi,

    Tooltip feature is deprecated in Wave 2 update. They will be introducing a new feature in April 2022. Please find the documentation here.

    Hope this helps!

    Regards,

    Venkatesh N
