Dynamically add tooltips to kendo grid rows of a column

Question
I have a column with some notes displaying in the rows. Since the notes are huge, I have cut short the notes in the controller itself and sent that to my aspx page. What I want to achieve is, I want to display the complete notes in the form of a tool tip on mouse over of the grid row ( or if possible exactly on cell ). Is there any way to achieve this? Any help would be highly appreciated. Thanks in Advance.
La solution
Posting the answer as it might help anyone.
I got that working after doing this...
columns.Bound(p => p.partialNotes).Title("Description").HeaderHtmlAttributes(new { style = "text-align:center" }).HtmlAttributes(new { style = "text-align:left" }).Width("8%").HtmlAttributes(new { title = "#= completeNotes #" });
I have just added HtmlAttributes(new { title = "#= completeNotes #" })
So now when I place the mouse over the Description column data , I get the complete Notes as a tool tip.
Autres conseils
Using a 3rd party widget is also a possibility. I've added qtip tips to column headers like this
KendoUI grid column array item
{
field:"property",
headerTemplate:kendo.template($("#h_Entity_property").html())
},
The header template
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="lib/Craga89-qTip2-bfcc9ef/dist/jquery.qtip.min.css"/>
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="lib/Craga89-qTip2-bfcc9ef/util/qtip.util.css"/>
<script type="text/javascript" src="lib/Craga89-qTip2-bfcc9ef/dist/jquery.qtip.min.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="lib/Craga89-qTip2-bfcc9ef/util/Dialogues.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="lib/Craga89-qTip2-bfcc9ef/util/Qtip2Util.js"></script>
<script type="text/x-kendo-template" id="h_Entity_property">
Property
<img onclick="Qtip.local(this, 'i_Entity_property')" src="img/info.gif"/>
<div id="i_Entity_property" style="display:none;">
Elaborate a bit...
</div>
</script>
Tooltip generator
var Qtip = {
local:function (element, contentId) {
$(element).qtip($.extend({}, qTipSharedOptions, {
content:{
text:$('#' + contentId).html(),
title:{
text:' ',
button:true
}
}
}
));
},
...
};
var qTipSharedOptions = {
position:{
at:'top right', // Position the tooltip above the link
my:'bottom left',
viewport:$(window), // Keep the tooltip on-screen at all times
effect:false // Disable positioning animation
},
style:{
classes:'ui-tooltip-tipsy ui-tooltip-shadow'
},
show:{
ready:true,
event:false,
solo:true // Only show one tooltip at a time
},
hide:false
};
you can do like below:
$("#Kendo-grid-div-id").kendoTooltip({
filter: "td:nth-child(2),td:nth-child(3)", //comma separated multiple columns
position: "bottom", //possible values: bottom,top,left,right,center
content: function(e){
var content = e.target.html();
return content;
}
}).data("kendoTooltip");
