Hi, is there a way to add tooltips to Controls/Parameters as well as column name in Pivot Table and regular Table in the Dashboard? I would like to include more description about the parameter/column when user hover over to the field.

Currently addition of tool-tips to table and pivot cells along with column descriptors are in roadmap. It will be available in Quick Sight’s “What’s New” section once it is released.

We need this feature, too! Our workaround: write a long column title which includes the description. Shrink column width so that description is hidden. It will show up on hover.
