How can I get a line to show over points

ProbitWombat217 — Mon, 26 Oct 2026 19:36:21 GMT

How can I get the DSTV target lines to be on top of the VCC points? I have tried Chat GPT, but everytime I do what it says I get the second image. Using JMP 18. Thanks!

I assume you want to combine both images. Generally, you would add both columns to same Y-axis, add line and points plots to same graph and then disable variables accordingly

In this case, points are from Steel Shipments and the line from Column 3

Your goal is to plot two different columns, DSTV and VCC, on a Merged Y-Axis. See: Merge Variables on an Axis. Here's how it looks with the Big Class example dataset.

Clicking the line element will add it for both variables:

The final step is to disable the elements you don't want, as @jthi explained below. Continuing with my example for completeness:
