Show Report More Info/Description Field

Is it possible to show the Description field ("i", on the report) or insert a 'More Info' (a la forms) in a report and/or gauge?

This would be helpful when explaining to various viewers what exactly the report is measuring and/or filtering out.

Thx,

A

Ah, I see. Great idea. I agree, a small icon in the upper right where the gear and refresh icons appear would be a reasonable place to put it. I invite you to open an enhancement request. Our product managers are listening.

Hi Adam,



Are you referring to something similar to the "i" icon on a list that you can hover over (below) or something else?

Correct, something like that (or any drop-down, hover, 'More Info' section, etc.) where we can explain what the report measures for clarity.


Hi Adam,



FYI - Except for lists, most reports have "drill down" capabilities. You can click a pie chart slice, single score number, etc. and see the records behind the data.


I'm aware of that, but I'm not looking for drill downs (I already have that enabled on most of my reports) - I'm looking more like the actual "i" to show (somewhere on the report), a hover that will show the description, or something a la the below:

I imagine since the description is being captured somehow:

Then we should be able to publish this info on the gauge as well.



Thx,
