Spotfire Analyst - New window for tools / writing expressions etc
We always need to close windows and open them again when it comes to writing custom expressions (within charts or calculating columns) for example, and it blocks the main Spotfire window, not practical. When a dual monitor configuration, no other ...
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...

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...
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...
