    Support Map Feature Service

    To be able to add existing feature services layers from ArcGIS to a map in Spotfire. For companies who already have many layers built out, it would be very convenient to be able to consume them. WMS layers aren't enough, as you cannot combine them...

    Being able to sync scale ranges between visuals

    This is a request from our Spotfire customer. In the sample screenshot, users linked the filter bar values to the range of x-axis values, so the left screenshot shows the x-axis from 1 to 10 corresponding to 1-10 values of the filter bar, and data...

    Be able to perform on-the-fly datum transformations when adding map layers with different CRS

    Hide stats table headers when using (vertical) category axis labels in box plots

    Line Chart Labels to evenly distribute

    It would be great if Spotfire evenly distribute a limited number of labels across an entire visualization. There is little use in limiting label count if they are only going to be displayed on the first few values in line chart. It would be good t...
