Information and Warnings


Information Icons in Visualizations

If there are items in a visualization that cannot be shown or might be misinterpreted because of the current settings, an icon is shown in the title bar of that visualization. If something cannot be shown in the visualization, a notification icon, notification_icon.png, is displayed. If there is a risk that something might be misinterpreted due to lack of data to calculate a curve or similar, a warning icon, warning_icon.png, is shown. On mouseover, a tooltip is shown, and if you click the icon a longer description is displayed.

Details Link

If you are currently running some heavy calculations, or, if there is some trouble with the loaded data or a calculation in the analysis, you will see a Details... link in the lower left corner of the TIBCO Spotfire window.
