Description |
| 22-October-2008 |
A50823 |

|
| 17-September-2008 |
A50625 |

- Custom preferences not correctly persisted when switching between users and/or TIBCO Spotfire Analytics Servers. Custom Preferences created using the APIs break if using multiple configurations.
- Unable to open some dxp files, with exception The input stream is not a valid binary format.
- Spontaneous crash when TIBCO Spotfire application is left idle. The TIBCO Spotfire application sometimes crashes spontaneously if left idle online on slow networks.

| 25-August-2008 |
A50484 |
Fixes the following issues:
- Application crash when loading certain files. Opening analysis using multiple related data sources may fail.
- After upgrade to .Net 3.5 SP1 some analysis cannot be opened. Also undo/redo may result in crash due to .Net 3.5 SP1 bug.
|
| 25-July-2008 |
A50362 |
Fixes the following issues:
- NTLM authentication information is not saved. If the suggested credentials are not edited, NTLM authentication information will not be saved.
- On demand plots are not always populated when marking in the master plot. Marking in visualization based on an Information Link (IL), that has two or more On Demand ILs, will not populate all On demand visualizations.
- Get Values not enabled when opening analysis with multiple data tables. The button for 'Get Values' from current visualization is disabled when opening an analysis with multiple data tables, i.e. an Information link with a values prompt can't be used to dynamically retrieve data from another data table.
- Get Values during reload of data causes the application to crash. An analysis based on a prompted Information Link may crash when reloading data and clicking Get Values in the prompt.
- Application crashes when publishing package containing a multimodule assembly. Deployment of packages containing multimodule assembly, e.g. .NET modules causes application crashes.
|
| 10-July-2008 |
A50142 |
Fixes the following issues:
- Inserted columns from prompted Information Link may result in crash. If inserting columns from external data based on a prompted information link application may crash.
- Information link prompt doesn’t contain distinct values A prompted information link with filters does not show distinct values when run.
- LastPeriods function implemented incorrectly. The LastPeriods function only returns x previous nodes, according to documentation it should return current nodes and x-1 previous nodes.
- Unable to open Analysis offline if analysis contain On demand related data. If creating and saving an analysis with multiple data tables where at least one is related to another table with on-demand loading of data, that analysis cannot be opened if TIBCO Spotfire is offline.
- Deleting data table may result in crash. If any visualizations contains reference line and the data table this visualization is based on is deleted, the TIBCO Spotfire application may crash.
- Reference line not visible if calculation fail. If the calculation for a reference line fails for some values, the reference line is not visible.
- Visualization refresh button is not triggered from custom applications. Refresh button is not enabled even though the producer indicates refresh is needed.
- Background gridlines differ in first trellis panel compared to the rest. Gridlines in the first trellis panel are antialiased, which is not the case in the rest of the panels.
- Opening Web Analysis in TIBCO Spotfire Application is unstable. If an Analysis is opened from TIBCO Spotfire Web Player and from that opened in TIBCO Spotfire Application, it may crash after about 15 minutes due to a session transfer issue.
