Splunk Search

Describing fields

CarbonCriterium
Path Finder

Brand new to Splunk and curious whether there is a way to add descriptive text to the pop out window that appears when a user selects (clicks) a field in the search results?  I am building a data dictionary for myself, but I would like the ability to view these descriptions in Splunk.  Is there a way to do this?

That's an interesting feature that doesn't exist right now.  You can suggest it at https://ideas.splunk.com
