Script formatting for Variability Charts

ylee — Wed, 30 Nov 2016 17:50:40 GMT

Hello,

I am trying to script a series of Variability Charts in a single Window, which I could save to a JRN or pptx later.

Each chart is intended to display the values (in Y) of different parameters (e.g. Height, Weight, Length) with different combination of independent X axis {due to this reason, I could not script it as By( :Parameter_Class ) } in a single Variability Chart platform.

Problem: Displayed output from a manually graphed chart would have the parameter name nicely printed in the Outline Box but what's obtained from the script below would look out-of-place and not nicely formatted. Any way it could be scripted that meets the desired format?

Desired:

Obtained:

New Window( "Variability Chart for Parameters",
Variability Chart(
Y( :Value ),
X( :colA, :colB, :colC, :colD ),
Analysis Type( "Choose best analysis (EMS REML Bayesian)" ),
Std Dev Chart( 0 ),
Where( :Parameter_Class == "Height" )
);
Variability Chart(
Y( :Value ),
X( :colA, :colB, :colC, :colD, :colE ),
Analysis Type( "Choose best analysis (EMS REML Bayesian)" ),
Std Dev Chart( 0 ),
Where( :Parameter_Class == "Weight" )
);
Variability Chart(
Y( :Value ),
X( :colC, :colE ),
Analysis Type( "Choose best analysis (EMS REML Bayesian)" ),
Std Dev Chart( 0 ),
Where( :Parameter_Class == "Length" )
);
)

Here are the modification you would need to make to change the titles on the outline boxes as you require:

New Window( "Variability Chart for Parameters",
	v1=Variability Chart(
		Y( :Value ),
		X( :colA, :colB, :colC, :colD ),
		Analysis Type( "Choose best analysis (EMS REML Bayesian)" ),
		Std Dev Chart( 0 ),
		Where( :Parameter_Class == "Height" )
	);
	report(V1)["Variability Guage"]<<set title("Variability Guage Parameter_Class=Weight");
	V2=Variability Chart(
		Y( :Value ),
		X( :colA, :colB, :colC, :colD, :colE ),
		Analysis Type( "Choose best analysis (EMS REML Bayesian)" ),
		Std Dev Chart( 0 ),
		Where( :Parameter_Class == "Weight" )
	);
	report(V2)["Variability Guage"]<<set title("Variability Guage Parameter_Class=Weight");
	V3=Variability Chart(
		Y( :Value ),
		X( :colC, :colE ),
		Analysis Type( "Choose best analysis (EMS REML Bayesian)" ),
		Std Dev Chart( 0 ),
		Where( :Parameter_Class == "Length" )
	);
	report(V3)["Variability Guage"]<<set title("Variability Guage Parameter_Class=Length");
);

Hello Jim,

Thank you for the suggestion, it works :)

In the process I have found that we could also script "By" on top of the "Where", and that'll get us a nicely formatted graph too.

OutlineBox("CATEGORY = Height",
V List Box(
v3=Variability Chart(
Y( :Value ),
X( :colA, :colE ),
Analysis Type( "Choose best analysis (EMS REML Bayesian)" ),
Std Dev Chart( 0 ),
Where( :Parameter == "Height" ),
By( :Parameter )
);
);
),
