From your description, it sounds like you are using Project for the Web and NOT Project Online as you state in the title of your question. Assuming that you are using Project for the Web, then the answer to your question is no. It is not possible to export only what is displayed in the Grid view. The Export to Excel automatically exports all standard columns, plus any custom columns you have created. If there are columns you do not want to see in the resulting Excel worksheet, simply delete them. Hope this helps.

Unfortunately, the ScreenTips feature in PowerPoint, Visio or PDF files is not supported in the File Viewer web part in SharePoint modern pages. To display pop-up information when hovering over a shape, you may need to create a custom web part or use third-party add-ons. It's also possible to embed the original file in an iframe and use JavaScript to add the hover functionality.

I've explored some of these other options as well, but either the cost is prohibitive for our use, or my skills are not that advanced (yet). 😉 Thanks for confirming!
