Description

A new feature has been introduced from Spotfire 7.13 related to the page layout i.e. the pages are responsive in nature. When a page is viewed on a small device like a phone or if the application window is resized, the layout organizes itself to suit the screen. All the current visualizations are responsive, except for the Text area. So, if you want to use any image/logo inside the analysis file and want it to be responsive, then you can use the below workaround.
