Add the "pad" function

I would like to see the PAD (and/or LPAD/RPAD) function added to Spotfire. This is a common string function in many other DBMSs and tools. Example use case:I had a data source with one column containing SEQUENCE (i.e. integer 1-15) and another col...

Synchronize Data Functions with copy in library

Once a data function is loaded into a DXP from a file, it is impossible to then synchronize/link that data function with a known identical copy in the library. Would be useful to be able to re-establish this link, once it is broken. (Each copy has...
