How do we style this tool-tip?

 

-SET &ECHO=ALL;
SET PAGE-NUM = NOPAGE
-SET &FIRST_CURR_MONTH = EDIT(&YYMD, '9999$$$$')  || '/'  || EDIT(&YYMD, '$$$$99$$')  || '/' || '01';

-RUN

-*Get first day of current month
-SET &FIRSTD = EDIT(&YYMD, '999999$$') || '01';
-*Get first day of rolling last 12 month
-SET &FIRSTDLM = DATECVT(DATEADD(DATECVT(&FIRSTD, 'I8YYMD', 'YYMD'), 'M', -13), 'YYMD', 'A8YYMD');
-SET &FIRST_LAST_MONTH = EDIT(&FIRSTDLM, '9999$$$$')  || '/'  || EDIT(&FIRSTDLM, '$$$$99$$')  || '/' || '01';

-RUN

-SET &TITLE_MSG = '<span style="cursor: default;" ' | 'title="Retail Cost minus Dealer Cost">Profit</span>';

DEFINE FILE CAR
PROFIT/D7          = RETAIL_COST - DEALER_COST;
T1_PROFIT/A12      = FPRINT(PROFIT, 'D7', 'A12');
T1_RETAIL_COST/A12 = FPRINT(RETAIL_COST, 'D7', 'A12');
T1_DEALER_COST/A12 = FPRINT(DEALER_COST, 'D7', 'A12');
MO_PROFIT/A255 =
   '<span style="cursor: default;" title="'
|| 'From:' || (' ' | '&FIRST_LAST_MONTH.EVAL')
|| ( ' ' | '&|#013;'
|| 'To: ' || (' ' | '&FIRST_CURR_MONTH')
|| '">') || T1_PROFIT || '</span>';
END
-RUN

TABLE FILE CAR
PRINT
MO_PROFIT AS '&TITLE_MSG'

WHERE RECORDLIMIT EQ 1
ON TABLE SET STYLE *
TYPE=DATA, COLUMN=MO_PROFIT, JUSTIFY=RIGHT, $
ENDSTYLE
END
-RUN

The code that you posted is incomplete because it includes html tags in it, and the browser tried to render that html.

When posting code on the forums, please click on the     in the tool bar to block out your code.

I edited the message. That is pretty much it. Thanks.

Excellent. Thank you. That completed the missing pieces. You can use css to do something like this:

 
 SET PAGE-NUM = NOPAGE
-SET &FIRST_CURR_MONTH = EDIT(&YYMD, '9999$$$$')  || '/'  || EDIT(&YYMD, '$$$$99$$')  || '/' || '01';
-RUN

-*Get first day of current month
-SET &FIRSTD = EDIT(&YYMD, '999999$$') || '01';
-*Get first day of rolling last 12 month
-SET &FIRSTDLM = DATECVT(DATEADD(DATECVT(&FIRSTD, 'I8YYMD', 'YYMD'), 'M', -13), 'YYMD', 'A8YYMD');
-SET &FIRST_LAST_MONTH = EDIT(&FIRSTDLM, '9999$$$$')  || '/'  || EDIT(&FIRSTDLM, '$$$$99$$')  || '/' || '01';

-RUN

-* -SET &TITLE_MSG = '<span style="cursor: default;" ' | 'title="Retail Cost minus Dealer Cost">Profit</span>';
-SET &TITLE_MSG = '<div class="tooltip">Profit<span class="tooltiptext">Retail Cost minus Dealer Cost</span>';

DEFINE FILE CAR
PROFIT/D7          = RETAIL_COST - DEALER_COST;
T1_PROFIT/A12      = FPRINT(PROFIT, 'D7', 'A12');
T1_RETAIL_COST/A12 = FPRINT(RETAIL_COST, 'D7', 'A12');
T1_DEALER_COST/A12 = FPRINT(DEALER_COST, 'D7', 'A12');
MO_PROFIT/A255 = '<div class="tooltip">' || T1_PROFIT || '<span class="tooltiptext">From: &FIRST_LAST_MONTH.EVAL<br>To: &FIRST_CURR_MONTH.EVAL</span></div>';
END
-RUN

        opacity: 0;
        transition: opacity 0.3s;
    }

I edited the code above. I missed the &TITLE_MSG

You cannot style using "title" you will have to use "data-title". I found this code while searching the internet (google) and stackoverflow.com had this solution.

You will also ahve to use CSS styling:

 

-* File: IBFS:/DEV-WebFocusAT/WFC/Repository/Test/Marita/Procedure2.fex Created by WebFOCUS AppStudio
-SET &ECHO=ALL;
SET PAGE-NUM = NOPAGE
-SET &FIRST_CURR_MONTH = EDIT(&YYMD, '9999$$$$')  || '/'  || EDIT(&YYMD, '$$$$99$$')  || '/' || '01';

-RUN

-*Get first day of current month
-SET &FIRSTD = EDIT(&YYMD, '999999$$') || '01';
-*Get first day of rolling last 12 month
-SET &FIRSTDLM = DATECVT(DATEADD(DATECVT(&FIRSTD, 'I8YYMD', 'YYMD'), 'M', -13), 'YYMD', 'A8YYMD');
-SET &FIRST_LAST_MONTH = EDIT(&FIRSTDLM, '9999$$$$')  || '/'  || EDIT(&FIRSTDLM, '$$$$99$$')  || '/' || '01';

-RUN

-SET &TITLE_MSG = '<span style="cursor: default;" ' | 'title="Retail Cost minus Dealer Cost">Profit</span>';

DEFINE FILE CAR
PROFIT/D7          = RETAIL_COST - DEALER_COST;
T1_PROFIT/A12      = FPRINT(PROFIT, 'D7', 'A12');
T1_RETAIL_COST/A12 = FPRINT(RETAIL_COST, 'D7', 'A12');
T1_DEALER_COST/A12 = FPRINT(DEALER_COST, 'D7', 'A12');
MO_PROFIT/A255 =
   '<span style="cursor: default;color=red;"  data-title="'
|| 'From:' || (' ' | '&FIRST_LAST_MONTH.EVAL')
|| ( ' ' | '&|#013;'
|| 'To: ' || (' ' | '&FIRST_CURR_MONTH')
|| '">') || T1_PROFIT || '</span>';
END
-RUN

TABLE FILE CAR
PRINT
MO_PROFIT AS '&TITLE_MSG'

WHERE RECORDLIMIT EQ 1
ON TABLE SET STYLE *
TYPE=DATA, COLUMN=MO_PROFIT, JUSTIFY=RIGHT, $
ENDSTYLE
END
-RUN
-HTMLFORM BEGIN
<style>

[data-title]:hover:after {
    opacity: 1;
    transition: all 0.1s ease 0.5s;
    visibility: visible;
}
[data-title]:after {
    content: attr(data-title);
    background-color: #00FF00;
    color: #111;
    font-size: 150%;
    position: absolute;
    padding: 1px 5px 2px 5px;
    bottom: -1.6em;
    left: 100%;
    white-space: nowrap;
    box-shadow: 1px 1px 3px #222222;
    opacity: 0;
    border: 1px solid #111111;
    z-index: 99999;
    visibility: hidden;
}
[data-title] {
    position: relative;
}
</style>

-HTMLFORM END

 

There is always the option of integrating Bootstrap 4 into your report output as well and user their tooltip set up (Read more here: https://getbootstrap.com/docs/...components/tooltips/

This code uses the bootstrap tooltips which uses the title attribute of the element:

  
SET PAGE-NUM = NOPAGE
-SET &FIRST_CURR_MONTH = EDIT(&YYMD, '9999$$$$')  || '/'  || EDIT(&YYMD, '$$$$99$$')  || '/' || '01';
-RUN

-*Get first day of current month
-SET &FIRSTD = EDIT(&YYMD, '999999$$') || '01';
-*Get first day of rolling last 12 month
-SET &FIRSTDLM = DATECVT(DATEADD(DATECVT(&FIRSTD, 'I8YYMD', 'YYMD'), 'M', -13), 'YYMD', 'A8YYMD');
-SET &FIRST_LAST_MONTH = EDIT(&FIRSTDLM, '9999$$$$')  || '/'  || EDIT(&FIRSTDLM, '$$$$99$$')  || '/' || '01';

-RUN

-SET &TITLE_MSG = '<span data-toggle="tooltip" data-placement="top" data-container="body" title="Retail Cost minus Dealer Cost">Profit</span>';

DEFINE FILE CAR
PROFIT/D7          = RETAIL_COST - DEALER_COST;
T1_PROFIT/A12      = FPRINT(PROFIT, 'D7', 'A12');
T1_RETAIL_COST/A12 = FPRINT(RETAIL_COST, 'D7', 'A12');
T1_DEALER_COST/A12 = FPRINT(DEALER_COST, 'D7', 'A12');
MO_PROFIT/A255 = '<span data-toggle="tooltip" data-placement="right" data-container="body" data-html="true" title="From: &FIRST_LAST_MONTH.EVAL<br>To: &FIRST_CURR_MONTH.EVAL">' || T1_PROFIT || '</span>';
END
-RUN

TABLE FILE CAR
PRINT
MO_PROFIT AS '&TITLE_MSG'
WHERE RECORDLIMIT EQ 1
ON TABLE SET STYLE *
TYPE=DATA, COLUMN=MO_PROFIT, JUSTIFY=RIGHT, $
ENDSTYLE
END
-RUN

-HTMLFORM BEGIN NOEVAL
<head>
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/twitter-bootstrap/4.3.1/css/bootstrap.min.css"/>
<script type="text/javascript" src="https://code.jquery.com/jquery-3.4.1.min.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src='https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/twitter-bootstrap/4.3.1/js/bootstrap.bundle.min.js'></script>
<script>
    $(function () {
        $('[data-toggle="tooltip"]').tooltip();
    })
</script>
<head>
-HTMLFORM END

These suggestions work.Thank you.

Excellent!!

🎉

Don't forget to change the title of the post to start with [SOLVED]
