Multiple expression columns in property controls.

While it is possible to plug an expression into a plot axis with a document property, often it is necessary to plug that calculation into two visualizations. The difficulty is that two (or more) expressions are required because of the visualizatio...

Passing calendar dates from Spotfire tables into Matlab data-structures via a Data Function without having to recalculate the dates

Currently calendar dates in Spotfire tabular data are received through a Data Function into Matlab as dates counted from 1/1/1960 rather than from the standard calendar starting point. This requires performing in the Matlab Data Function a convers...

Data Functions to pass Spotfire data in Tables into Matlab objects of type "Table", "Array" or "Matrix" instead of "Structure"

Currently Spotfire tabular data is received through a Data Function into a "Structure" object (a datastructure where each column is recorded and accessed as a separate field). This is a structure much harder to manipulate in Matlab than a Matlab "...

Produce warning when changing engine type in data function

Users can change the engine type in a data function without resetting all of the code, inputs, and outputs, which is fantastic. However it is maybe a little too easy to change this. I found just an accidental touch of the mouse scrolling switched ...

Add expression function to convert Temperature

This is one of those simple things that you'd think would be in the tool already, but just isn't. Here's an example of how it's implemented in Excel. I would use the exact same approach. https://www.extendoffice.com/documents/excel/1254-excel-conv...
