Current behavior
Impossible to set a p-tooltip per p-dataTable row

Expected behavior
p-dataTable will have an ability to display p-tooltip on per row basis.

What is the motivation / use case for changing the behavior?
Provide additional information to end user ("invalid data", ...)

Please tell us about your environment:

• Angular version: 2.4.4
  

• PrimeNG version: 2.0.0-rc2

Actually it's not impossible you can create your rows with templates and later you can set tooltips for that templates.

Template can be put only inside a column. I need to put a tooltip on a row. That would work only if I create a single column with a template. Inside this column I would then create my cells.

<p-column>
    <template pTemplate="header">
         <div class="row">
              <div>Col 1</div>
              <div>Col 2</div>
          </div>
    </template>
    <template let-car="rowData" pTemplate="body">
        <div class="row" pTooltip="Some text">
              <div>{{row.vin}}</div>
              <div>{{row.year}}</div>
         </div>
    </template>
</p-column>

If I go this way I lose the ability to many other features that grid has to offer - editing, sorting, column resizing, column filtering,...
I think this would be a hack, not a solution. And I would not want to lose all of these mentioned possibilities over a tooltip feature.

If I am missing something please explain it to me, as I would like to learn how this can be done without such hack.

no news on this?

Tooltip requires a host, tr is not a host, you need a custom impl for this on your side. The request is too custom for us to implement.
