Spotfire Analyst - Fetch and render the Description field from the column items in the Spotfire Library
The understanding of what is displayed in a column is very important. When columns from information links within the Spotfire Library have a description set, it is not possible as per Spotfire 10.3.3 to fetch this information and display it in ana...
add option to enable datatable color stripe as default
In Document properties, there's an option of "Show a color stripe for related tables". This color stripe is useful when loading multiple datatables, but it's disabled as default. Please add option to enable datatable color stripe as default.
The way that the Spotfire insert columns mechanism is built is it builds a list of columns to ignore, rather than a list of columns to insert. For example, let's say you have Table A with column A, B, and C. You insert column A into Table B. Then,...
Some times, more complex expression containing the Previous function requires that the data table are in certain order, something not possible with actual version of Spotfire. So I suggest a new type of transformation
When creating a column add (aka join) between tables, it would be amazing to be able to more specifically define the join type rather than only having an '='. If for example you could select the type from =, >, <, >=, <=, etc. then you...
Sometimes the user needs only 4-5 columns in a dataset from a file or database containing hundreds of columns. When importing into Spotfire, the Import Settings menu does not allow the user (in Spotfire X at least) to select all/ deselect all fiel...
give the infoLink builder in information designer the look and feel of the data canvas
The infoLink builder interface is now highly technical in look and feel while there is a very nice interface with virtually the same functionality available in the data canvas. This would greatly help the self service use of the tooling. Please co...
Add transformations to external data tables (and database pushback of these)
Spotfire lacks one very important feature to make data preparation more useful: basic operations on external tables. Other tools offer this in terms of joins, filters for row and columns, simple calculations, aggregation and similar. All these ope...
Ability to add in conditions when joining data in Spotfire Cloud such as >, <, <=, >=
When inserting columns in Spotfire Cloud (desktop version) the data tables can only be joined on exact matches (=). It would be useful to be able to add in conditions such as > or <= to narrow down the number of matches to the desired row in...
Custom expression when performing unpivot/pivot data transformation
It would be useful to have the possibility to use custom expressions in pivot transformations. This would allow users to already create tailormade columns during the transformation phase, rather than once the data is loaded completely.
