Good morning,
Is it possible to use tooltips in Looker Platform to present information from another Explore?

For example: I have a table with company information and amounts to be received. When I hover the mouse over the word "to be received", the tooltip will show the comment about that amount that is in another Explore.

I don't think that's possible. When calling references in things like tooltips, you can only reference objects in the same Explore. 

I'm curious to hear more about your use case - why can't you include the fields that you need for the tooltip in your current Explore?
