Creating a matrix of graphs

I have a question concerning layouts in JMP. I am running equivalence tests between difference lasers (9 unique results) to ensure that they perform the same. When I run the script, it returns a stack of about 36 different graphs in no particular order. What I would like to do is something similar to what has been done with an R script before in which graphs were laid out in a matrix where corresponding equivalence graphs between the two lasers are easily located in the grid, like so:

Header 1	Laser 1	Laser 2	Laser 3	Laser 4	Laser 5
Laser 1	Blank	L2 v L1 Equivalency Graph	L3 v L1 Equivalency Graph	L4 v L1 Equivalency Graph	L5 v L1 Equivalency Graph
Laser 2	L1 v L2 Equivalency Graph	Blank	L3 v L2 Equivalency Graph	L4 v L2 Equivalency Graph	L5 v L2 Equivalency Graph
Laser 3	L1 v L3 Equivalency Graph	L2 v L3 Equivalency Graph	Blank	L4 v L3 Equivalency Graph	L5 v L3 Equivalency Graph
Laser 4	L1 v L4 Equivalency Graph	L2 v L4 Equivalency Graph	L3 v L4 Equivalency Graph	Blank	L5 v L4 Equivalency Graph
Laser 5	L1 v L5 Equivalency Graph	L2 v L5 Equivalency Graph	L3 v L5 Equivalency Graph	L4 v L5 Equivalency Graph	Blank

I've tried using the layout editor to to it manually, but this method is unreliable, ineffecient, and not easily replicable through scripting. If anyone has any input on either an array graph script or means of scripting this to work, it would be much appreciate.

You could try taking a look at the SheetBox display box

Thanks Dave, exactly what I was looking for!

Hi:

R Connection makes an easy example using the "lattice" package.

best,

-Matt

sas = SAS Connect(); // local PC SAS

SAS Submit("

libname temp 'c:/temp';

data temp.a;

array laser (5) laser1-laser5;

do x = 1 to 25;

do i = 1 to 25;

laser(i) - ranor(12345)*ranuni(x);

end;

output;

end;

drop x i;

run;

");

dt = sas << Import Data("temp.a");

SAS Disconnect();

Rcon = R Connect();

Rcon << send(dt);

Rcon << Submit("

library(lattice);

splom(dt[c(1,2,3,4,5)], main='Laser Data')

");

plot = RConnection << Get Graphics( png );

New Window ("Laser Plot", Picture Box( plot ) );

Rcon << Disconnect();

We actually have a sript similar to this set up with R that we currently use but we're trying to switch over a lot of our analyses into JMP to make things more accessible to the rest of our associates, but thanks!
