Customizing Tooltips

You can customize the content of tooltips for requirements, functions, flows, logical components and system types through dedicated settings. You can also customize the tooltip for physical entities, but these tooltips are seen only in the requirement 2D graph, when a product is implemented by a requirement.

The customized tooltip content can also be displayed in the body of the 2D representation, provided that no picture is already assigned. See Display the Tooltip Content in 2D Representation.
