Creating a Visualization

The set of Spotfire visualizations can be extended. Shortcut visualizations define data dependent properties, thereby configuring the appearance of an existing visualization. Custom visualizations are built using Spotfire APIs, and are added to the set of Spotfire visualizations.

Overview

Custom visualizations that have been deployed in the Spotfire environment appear in the same places and behave in the same way as Spotfire visualizations: They are accessible from the Insert > New visualization menu, from the plot context menus and from the toolbar, and they can share data sets, marking and filtering with other plots.
