I want to display a ‘caption’ when I hover over a button (just like when you hover over the ‘new tab’ button on Chrome), but I haven’t come across any trigger event for hover. Any ideas on how to do this?

There’s not a mouseover event in Thunkable so it would have to be a JavaScript if anything but I’m not sure if that’s possible.

Bother. This would come in really handy. Any workaround ideas?

Something to consider is that Thunkable Staff can only read so many forum posts. I think it makes more of an impact to submit a Feature Request if it’s something that would benefit your app development.
