Can we add tool tip / contextual help on columns of embedded list? The entire table is readonly.

Hello @yt110154

I don’t think we have any OOTB capability for that until my best knowledge. You have to go for custom component tables if its strict UI requirement.

Hi @JayachandraSiddipeta , does your comment applies to editable list also ? i mean for the column of embedded list (read only / editable).

If you add the EmbeddedList to the Field Group, then you can add a contextual help but not very intuitive
