How to add Hover over text on activity field?

[darling]

Hi,

I am taring to add hover over text on activity, work notes ,comments fields on incident table but I am not able to add so can any one help me on this.

Short answer - normally you can Configure the field label to add a hint.

The activity history has alway been a formatter, not a field, so there's no hint there. In UI16 the comments and work notes are combined in to a formatter implicitly so you can post the notes without doing a form refresh.

You could use a on load client script

function onLoad() {

    //Type appropriate comment here, and begin script below

g_form.addDecoration('name of field', 'icon-view', 'Your help text here');

}
