  • ListGridField governmentField = new ListGridField("government", "Government", 120);
        governmentField.setShowHover(true);
        governmentField.setHoverCustomizer(new HoverCustomizer() {
            public String hoverHTML(Object value, ListGridRecord record, int rowNum, int colNum) {
                CountryRecord countryRecord = (CountryRecord) record;
                int governmentDesc = countryRecord.getGovernmentDesc();
                String[] governmentDescription = new String[]{
