I want the simple ability to add hover text on any shape without having to apply a conditional formatting rule.

I have a diagram that has a lot of skinny boxes stacked on top of one another (edges touching). I have tried everything that LucidChart has to add hover text. There is the complex rule creation, but the icons that are added are bigger than the boxes that I’m creating them for. So, they overlap and generally clutter up the diagram. I tried notes, but it is the same problem, with the note icon being bigger than my boxes and overlapping and cluttering up the diagram. It would be REALLY nice if there did not have to be another object on my diagram to have hover text. I just want the hover text to be easy to enter (note is fine) and then to appear when they hover over the object rather than there having to be an extra icon that they have to hover over.
