In Spotfire previous versions (7.0.2 and 7.11 for example) it was easy to turn HTML Sanitation on and off.
All I had to do was go to Tools -> Administration Manager -> Everyone -> Preferences -> Text Area -> TextAreaPreferences -> And set the PerformHtmlSanitation to False.
I can't find it anywhere on my Spotfire X (10.2.0) desktop. Actually, I can't even find the Administration Manager.
Does anyone know where this can be set?
based on your post, this is because you're using the Desktop edition, not the Analyst edition. Desktop is a standalone, local-only version of the Analyst client; it cannot connect to a server, therefore there is nothing to administer. you should see this right away if you get the Analyst client.
