Specify or Change Plot Order on Scatter Plot with Tibco Spotfire

Is there a way to alter the native 'plot order' in Spotfire? Effectively, I want to control which data is plotted in front.

My current issue is that data is being hidden by an overlapping data set, and I want to change which data set is plotted in front.

I have tried changing the column order which controls the 'colorby' filter, and Google has yielded no help.

Solution

  • Figured out one work-around:

    1) Create column with numerical values corresponding to the plot order, with the 'data in front' having being '1', and increasing for each layer going back;

    2) Enable the 'size-by' filter, and select this new column;

    3) Manually program the min/max limits to be '1' and '1';

    4) Profit;
