Is it possible to create a formula field that shows a certain numbers of characters, and past that if you hover with your mouse it will show the entire field? I found this community post, but it seems to me that it doesn't hover, but rather just link to a new form (which I suppose I could do, and have the new form in a popup window with the entire text, but I am really looking for a simple hover).

Am I utilizing the formula in the post incorrectly, or is there an alternate approach?

Hover over the link and wait a second and you get the preview (it disappears if you try to do a screenshot so I took a picture of it):

"'>more</a>")Hover over the link and wait a second and you get the preview (it disappears if you try to do a screenshot so I took a picture of it):
