### Shared tooltip
|
|
|
|
{{< imgbox max-width="60%" img="/img/docs/v41/shared_tooltip.gif" caption="Shared tooltip" >}}
|
|
|
|
Showing the tooltip on all panels at the same time has been a long standing request in Grafana and we are really happy to finally be able to release it.
|
|
You can enable/disable the shared tooltip from the dashboard settings menu or cycle between default, shared tooltip and shared crosshair by pressing Ctrl/Cmd+O.

|
### Help text for panel
|
|
|
|
{{< imgbox max-width="60%" img="/img/docs/v41/helptext_for_panel_settings.png" caption="Hovering help text" >}}
|
|
|
|
You can set a help text in the general tab on any panel. The help text is using Markdown to enable better formatting and linking to other sites that can provide more information.
|
|
|
|
<div class="clearfix"></div>
|
|
|
|
{{< imgbox max-width="60%" img="/img/docs/v41/helptext_hover.png" caption="Hovering help text" >}}
|
|
|
|
Panels with a help text available have a little indicator in the top left corner. You can show the help text by hovering the icon.
|
|
<div class="clearfix"></div>
|
|
|
|
### Easier Cloudwatch configuration
|
|
|
|
{{< imgbox max-width="60%" img="/img/docs/v41/cloudwatch_settings.png" caption="Cloudwatch configuration" >}}
|
|
|
|
In Grafana 4.1.0 you can configure your Cloudwatch data source with `access key` and `secret key` directly in the data source configuration page.
|
|
This enables people to use the Cloudwatch data source without having access to the filesystem where Grafana is running.
|
|
|
|
Once the `access key` and `secret key` have been saved the user will no longer be able to view them.
|
|

|
## Upgrade and Breaking changes
|
|
|
|
Elasticsearch 1.x is no longer supported. Please upgrade to Elasticsearch 2.x or 5.x. Otherwise Grafana 4.1.0 contains no breaking changes.
