Does Graph Builder have a ruler tool?

Graph Builder is fantastic, it's one of the killer features of JMP.

Does it have a ruler tool buried somewhere? A way to measure the distance between two points?

For all the things GB does, I'd be surprised if it didn't...

Hi,

No, I don't think Graph Builder has that capability. In JMP you have the crosshair tool, which you could use with some offline calculation to measure the "distance" on a graph.

You can add feature requests on the JMP Wish List.

Regards,

Phil

New ruler tool added in JMP16, was documented in that wish list post:

Follow-up question. Does anyone know how to have it freeze in the graph? Would be nice to have it stay. In windows able to make it stay if you take a screen shot, does not disappear until you click back on the graph. But would be nice not to have to stretch fingers of one hand for screen shot while holding down the mouse.
