Some custom actions in SharePoint display an additional message with possible reason of the action being disabled. Is there a simple way of adding such a message only when the action is disabled (for example a specific CAML property) or can it be achieved only using JavaScript/jQuery?

You can use ToolTipTitle and  ToolTipDescription of the Button element in custom action.

  • But aren't tooltips displayed always when the action is pointed on, no matter whether it's disabled or enabled?

  • Yes. You can check that by hovering mouse over disabled ribbon buttons.

  • Yeah, and what I wanted to achieve is to display the hint ONLY when the action is disabled.
