    This is for Spotfire 7.11. When I add a subset through a custom expression, I usually want to name it. When I edit the custom expression of the subset later on, the display name of the subset is changed to the custom expression. I have to rename i...

    Currently WebServerPortAllocatioNCount, WebServerPortFrom, WebServerPortTo etc can be changed in Analyst's config file, however it must be done on each PC with Analyst installed which is time consuming. It would be good if these can be changed via...

    I would like to request the enhancement to some limited areas of spotfire functionality as below: When printing a table to a printer or to pdf, columns that have more rows than the value setting of the "Properties >> Appearance >> Data row height (number of lines)>> value" gets truncated. This does not work well for the nice functionality to print to file. Please allow this field to expand dynamically for each row such that when a specific row wraps to more than a single row, the row expands to permit the entire content of that row to be captured in the print. Currently when you set the value to any greater number of lines, all the rows becomes increased to that setting making waste of space on the page where those rows that have more lines wraps well as intended. On the other hand when this is done, it will be good to allow the multi-line rows to wrap to a certain distance from the left edge of the page without interfering to any previous columns data. Thus while the lines can wrap below the column without enough lines, it should not be allowed to wrap interfering with lines of that column if it contains data.

    Export a report based upon a subset of a range of a number of pages.

    Once a report of more than about 50 pages is created, it would be very helpful to enable the administrator/user to export a specific subset of PDF pages to be exported by selecting a range, like in most programs out there. Not fancy; just a functi...
