Data Limiting In Spotfire

• Have you ever looked at a Spotfire project and been at a loss for how the data is being limited or filtered?
• Would you like to know more about the Spotfire toolkit for limiting data?
• Would you like to know when to use one method for data limiting over another?
• Did you take a Spotfire basics course and need a refresher on data limiting in Spotfire?

Every day, I see users relying entirely upon the Filter Panel to limit data. But, it isn’t always the best tool for the job. And, Spotfire has so many way to limit data. It’s a really a shame to just use the Filter Panel. Thus, I decided to write a series about data limiting in Spotfire.

By the end, you will understand…

• All of the different tools available to limit data in Spotfire.
• Where to look for data limiting in projects you didn’t build.
• What tool to use for any data limiting use case.

Here’s what to expect.

I’ll release the first post next week.
