http://support.spotfire.com/patches_spotfire.asp#spotfire50
Listed below is a summary of the issue(s) that have been fixed in this release:
===============================================================================================================
1. If network problems have prevented images in tables from appearing, Spotfire does not attempt to fetch the missing images again.
2. In certain rare circumstances, Spotfire may become unstable when saving a file.
3. Dates formatted as "dates including months and not any time parts" in Microsoft Excel are imported incorrectly into Spotfire.
4. When using a bookmark in a text area that changes the alignment of a map chart via link to page layout, Spotfire becomes unstable.
5. Filter groups are always expanded in the Web Player and cannot be collapsed in an analysis with only one data table.
6. If the Line Similarity tool, or the K-means Clustering tool, has been run on data filtered by a list box filter, the file cannot be saved.
7. When adding or removing a document, column, or table property used as an Input parameter in the Data Functions UI, the result may be inconsistent and cause Spotfire to become unstable.
8. When a visualization is affected by a specific expression containing an if-statement condition with Rank and Sum, the visualization becomes unresponsive.
9. Marking in a visualization using in-db data results in incorrectly marked markers, when a currency column is used on a categorical axis, and the underlying decimal column contains multiple representations of the same value.
10. Unnecessarily high memory consumption for the operation "Add rows" when having many columns.
11. At certain screen resolutions, tooltips are displayed outside the visible screen area.
12. Spotfire becomes unstable when highlighting or marking in a bar chart with a custom expression like "[C] is null" or "([C]<4) IN (True)" on the category axis.
13. When an analysis contains large data sets, rendering and filtering may take some time, and TIBCO Spotfire Web Player may become unstable if data is exported while visualizations are still in the process of rendering or filtering.
14. Custom visualizations using the DataView API, that request a "group by column", return an error when the same column is used several times.
15. Bookmarks created in version 4.5 or earlier may fail when opened in 5.0.
16. Bookmarks may fail directly after creation when having related data tables in the analysis.
17. Use of column properties in an analysis activates the recalculation icon for Data Relationships.
18. When under heavy load, Automation Services jobs creating PDF files may fail with an InvalidOperationException.
19. Spotfire may become unstable when using data table properties that are named the same in custom expressions, even though the data table properties come from different data tables.
20. A relation set up between two data tables does not recover when an on-demand data table is based on a procedure and the relation at some point has had an input that did not return anything.
21. The Update web service for scheduled updates always produces an error when called.
22. When a data table used in a filter relation, related to a visualization with a marking, is deleted, Spotfire becomes unstable.
23. Different hash values are computed for +0.0 and -0.0, resulting in, for example, broken filters.
24. Wrong result when using an additive aggregation method (e.g., Sum) having an OVER expression containing a single AllPrevious, intersected with an odd number of nested Parent larger than 2.
25. Relations from 4.5 with implicit cast (relations where the columns from both data tables are of different data types after any applied methods) do not work in versions later than Spotfire 4.5.
26. Opening a file with a dendrogram created in an older version of Spotfire, may cause Spotfire to become unstable.
27. WeightedAverage gives wrong result in visualizations when filtering is applied.
28. Setting up relations in the add data tables dialog will under several circumstances cause Spotfire to become unstable.
29. All filters in an old analysis are missing when the analysis is opened in Spotfire Web Player 5.0.1, if the analysis contains more than one data table, but the filters are set to be visible for only one of the data tables.
30. Incorrect use of ColumnProperty, DataTableProperty and DocumentProperty functions in custom expressions can cause Spotfire to become unstable (if the argument is something other than a string).
31. The API GetBaseRowIndexes returns an error, and filtering is not applied when using multiple derived DataViews (for example, an aggregated DataView based on a non-aggregated DataView based on a DataTable).
