I want to know how could I customize the default tooltip shown by the column menu (https://stackblitz.com/run/?file=src/main.vue):

On this example, instead of the "ProductName Column Menu" tooltip text,  I'd like to display some other user friendly text, or just have this tooltip removed. Is it possible?

Hi ANTONIO,

The discussed title in the column menu is available in the Grid's column menu rendering because of accessibility requirements. Below are the options I can suggest to you in dealing with the title. 

  • Option 1: Remove the Title using an approach similar to what is demonstrated in this StackBlitz example.
  • Option 2: Modify the text of the titles using the localization provider which is part of the Kendo UI for Vue Native suite.  Here is a StackBlitz example in which you can switch between three different languages. The language localization is achieved through the en-US.js, es.js, and fr.js files. In each of the mentioned files, you will find objects with messages definitions. To modify the title of the column menu, you can use the grid.columnMenu prop:
      'grid.columnMenu': 'This is custom text',
    With the above definition, the title of the column menu will be "Column Name" + the test defined using the above property. 

Please check the above options and let me know if they help you achieve what you need in the application you are working on.
