improve python data function performance (read sbdf into python)

Glad to see python package "spotfire" is rewritten on version 2.0.0(spotfire 12.5) and sbdf read/write performance is greatly improved. However, as far as I have tested, although spotfire.sbdf.export_data() is greatly improved and much faster than...

Add an aggregation method to find the Nth most common value

MostCommon is a pretty useful aggregation method, for example when you have a large set of defective parts across different products and these are defective for different reasons and you want to see the most prominent error say per product. Very e...

Data function save as

Add a [Save as..] button to make a copy of the data function along with all the mapped parameters. When it comes to developing data functions or creating different versions of different data function, it takes too long too map all parameters for t...

Create a 'List box' property control with expression within a text area using a table apart from the default table

While working in the Property control dialog, select the property and set 'Set property value through' to 'Expressions'. However, when you attempt to Edit the Expression, only the column names from the default table are visible but not other tables.

DataFunction support for external data (in-db)

The current DataFunction paradigm only allows for sending data from and to the Spotfire in-memory data engine. For a Spotfire user, a Spotfire data table is a Spotfire data table, whether it is external or not. For data science and analysis applic...

Spotfire SAS service
