Description

Show Sharing Routines tab for data tables

In TIBCO Spotfire 5.5, the Scheduled Updates tab was added to the Data Table Properties dialog, and replaced the functionality that was previously available on the Sharing Routines tab. When the new tab was added, the Sharing Routines tab was also removed from the Data Table Properties dialog.

Select this option if you want to make the Sharing Routines tab available again in the Data Table Properties. Note that this will not remove the Scheduled Updates tab. By selecting this option both tabs will be available next to each other.

Deprecated features

The following features will be removed in a future version.

Enable 7.9 PDF export (requires restart)

In TIBCO Spotfire 7.10, the export to PDF function was renewed. In the new export, you get a preview of what you select to export and how different settings affect the output.

You can still access the 7.9 version of the export function though. Select this check box, and the File > Export > To PDF - 7.9 version [Deprecated] menu option becomes activated after restart.

Enable 7.11 Microsoft PowerPoint export (requires restart)

In TIBCO Spotfire 7.12, the export to Microsoft PowerPoint function was renewed. However, the 7.11 version of the export function can still be accessed. Select this check box, and the File > Export > To Microsoft PowerPoint - 7.11 version [Deprecated] menu option becomes activated after restart.

Enable HTML export (requires restart)

The export to HTML function is obsolete, but it can still be accessed. Select this check box, and the File > Export > To HTML [Deprecated] menu option becomes activated after restart.

Enable 7.11 Print

In TIBCO Spotfire 7.12, you print an analysis, or parts of it, by making an export to PDF, and then print the PDF document.

You can still access the 7.11 version of the print function though. Select this check box, and the File > Print option will open the 7.11 Print Layout Options dialog instead.
