We do not have a visualization which allows horizontal bars, however, you can create an expression which would create a pseudo horizontal bar in a Table based plot. This is possible using the Repeat function available in TIBCO Spotfire version 3.1 for constructing an expression.
Let’s assume we have the following data loaded in Spotfire:
We can then create a calculated column using the following expression:
Repeat(“█”,integer(10*[Col A]/Range([Col A])))
The Repeat function allows you to repeat a string a specified amount of times. For the string, we use the ASCII delete character, █. To specify the number of times to repeat, you can use any calculation as long as it outputs an integer.
In this example, we divide the value from Col A by the Range of Col A, then multiply by 10 and finally cast to an integer.
The result?
