Information panel when hovering over selection items

Question

Is there a way to display an information panel while hovering over an item in a selection list? I'm using Odoo 15.0. I want it so when a user has their mouse hovering over an item in the selection list an information box displays information about the item they are hovering over.

I don't know if you can show an individual tooltip for every item, but you can add a generic one that explain every one in the selection field with the help attribute.
state = fields.Selection([...] , required = True, help = "Blah blah blah" )  https://www.odoo.com/documentation/15.0/developer/reference/backend/orm.html#odoo.fields.Field [1]

Hi Nolan Johnston,
I don't think there is a direct option to add tooltip for selection items. I have found a similar question, that might help with your requirement.
