General




Renaming the Data Table used reconfigures the QuintusVisual
Details Visualization
Limit by marking with a QuintusVisuals visualization as child is only working
through a workaround:
Loading a data-on-demand table with limitation and selecting the on-demand data
table inside the QuintusVisuals visualization.
Note: An information link is required for setting up a data-on-demand table.
Using a TimeSpan datatype on a QuintusVisual can cause the client to crash.
Spider plot
Setting a column with many values as Dimension on Spider plot will cause a long
visualization build-up time.
Cascade




Sub-optimal Cascade trellis performance
The Cascade trellis has a sub-optimal performance; we are working together with
Spotfire to solve this as soon as possible.
For files created with Quintus Visuals 1.4.2.9004 or earlier, formatting can be lost.
Work-around: To re-enable the formatting switch from Cascade Column to Row
and backwards on X Axis tab in Properties or change a column.
For files created with Quintus Visuals 1.4.2.9004 or earlier, renaming a column
that is also used in a custom expression of a Cascade plot could invalidate the
cascade's configuration.
Work-around: To be able to rename columns a new Cascade must be inserted
and expressions have to be copied from the old to the new Cascade.
Switching to another data table in the Cascade will not automatically configure
based on the new data table.
Work-around: The Cascade can be configured manually. For Cascade row-based
at least one column in Manual row based setup is required.
