    Add method in IronPython API to export visualization (as-is) to Excel

    Currently, the CreateDataWriter method is available to export to Excel (reference); however, this export strips any formatting in the underlying visualization - e.g., Table. Spotfire v14.x offers an in-UI feature to export visualizations, as-is (r...

    Allow favoriting a file from the file

    Convenience. Better UX. Sometimes (often) I receive a file via a link to it. After processing it I want to favorite it. I don't know where it lives in the library. What to do? There is no way to get the library path from a dxp file, so if I want t...

    Easier to manage and order pages

    If I have too many pages in dxp, you may find it difficult to adjust the position of the page(moving the page) by dragging and dropping. I think it will be better for user to use if Spotfire has a page move/copy dialog like a sheet move/copy dialo...

    speed up csv load

    Attached screenshot indicates that csv file load is much slower than stdf or sbdf. It makes sense that sbdf is fast because it's binary, however we didn't expect stdf is almost as fast as sbdf. Since both csv and stdf are text files and the size o...

    Add a standard way to provide about information and help for Mods

    It's possible to add links to add pop-ups and buttons that links to additional documentation inside a Mod, but it would be better if access to help and about information was handled by the Spotfire framework to make it consistent across all Mods. ...

    custom y-axis label when using multiple columns

    I want my y-axis to say what it represents, such as "Error %" instead of "(6 columns)". I can list the visible columns using the legend, so I don't really care how many columns are plotted on the y-axis.

    Rename service configuration

    I would like to have the possibility to rename the service configurations. If the current configuration needs to be renamed, export/import the service configuration with a new name, and switch to the new name will create some downtime. As for the ...
