How to display tooltip on a panel without using javascript?

I need to show a tooltip on a panel, to let users know that clicking on the value will take them to a drill down. Is there a way to achieve this without using Javascript?

This is the code for the panel from the source.

 

 

<panel>
<title>Supported Platforms Count</title>
<single>
<title>This metric gives the count of platforms supported by Integration platform engineering team</title>
<search>
<query>| inputlookup Integrations_Platform_List.csv
| stats count</query>
<earliest>$global_time.earliest$</earliest>
<latest>$global_time.latest$</latest>
<sampleRatio>1</sampleRatio>
</search>
<option name="drilldown">all</option>
<option name="height">200</option>
<option name="rangeColors">["0x53a051","0x0877a6","0xf8be34","0xf1813f","0xdc4e41"]</option>
<option name="refresh.display">progressbar</option>
<option name="trellis.enabled">0</option>
<option name="trellis.size">medium</option>
<option name="trellis.splitBy">_aggregation</option>
<drilldown>
<link target="_blank">search?q=%7C%20inputlookup%20Integrations_Platform_List.csv%0A%7C%20stats%20count&amp;earliest=$global_time.earliest$&amp;latest=$global_time.latest$</link>
</drilldown>
</single>
</panel>

This solution is using javascript. I don't have access to add the .js file in the SplunkApp path, hence looking for any option without using javascript.

Hi @ATSplunker,

sorry, I missed the javascript landscape.

in this case there isn't any solution to your problem.

Ciao.
