We have a grid with few text columns. What we want is only display first x char in each cell and put "..." next to the text showing that more info (text) is available. When user hover over the cell, display full text in cell's tooltip.

How can we achieve this?

Hello Tejas, 

Currently there  is no tooltip component provided with Telerik Extensions for ASP.NET MVC. Thus I can suggest the following workarounds:

  1. You can try using RadToolTip for ASP.NET Ajax. It should work inside an ASP.NET MVC application with a few tweaks. However it needs the WebForms view engine in order to work. It will not work with Razor.
  2. A custom solution can be implemented. When the user enters the cell you can show an absolutely positioned DIV containing the tooltip message. 
  3. There are lots of jQuery based tooltips which you can also check.
