Send chart to journal using window name, not by using handle to chart?

Neo — Sun, 11 Jun 2023 11:17:48 GMT

Consider the following example script (a simplified version of my actual problem)

Names Default To Here(1);

dt = open("$SAMPLE_DATA/Big Class.jmp");

//Scatt3D = dt << Scatterplot 3D( Y( :age, :height ), X Axis( :age ), Y Axis( :height ) );
include ("plotScatterPlot.jsl");

Window ("Big Class - Scatterplot 3D of age, height")<< journal;

//Scatt3D << journal

where plotScatterPlot.jsl contains

Scatt3D = dt << Scatterplot 3D( Y( :age, :height ), X Axis( :age ), Y Axis( :height ) );

which generates a scatter plot in 3D with the window name

"Big Class - Scatterplot 3D of age, height"

I can generate a journal using

Scatt3D << journal

But I need to generate a journal using the window name

Window ("Big Class - Scatterplot 3D of age, height")<< journal;

which is not working. Could I please get some help in getting this to work?

(I am on JMP13).

The following JSL will generate a journal based upon the window name in JMP 13

Window ("Big Class - Scatterplot 3D of age, height")[outlinebox(1)]<< journal;

Thanks @txnelson. This works for the example I have provided. However, for the actual problem I am working on I am getting an error.

In my actual problem, the chart window (a heatmap) has a name.

"part16.08.02 6 - Graph Builder"

Running

Window ("part16.08.02 6 - Graph Builder, height")[outlinebox(1)]<< journal;

gives me the following error

expected character arg 1 in access or evaluation of 'Outline Box' , Outline Box/*###*/(1)

In the following script, error marked by /*###*/
Window( "part16.08.02 6 - Graph Builder, height" )[Outline Box/*###*/(1)] << journal

I get the journal created when I use

Window ("part16.08.02 6 - Graph Builder")[outlinebox(1)]<< journal;

It is using the name of the actual window. Why are you using

Window ("MPD16.0008.02 6 - Graph Builder, height")

as the window name?

@txnelson Sorry, this is a typo

Window ("MPD16.0008.02 6 - Graph Builder, height")

which I have now corrected in the post above, I am using

Window ("part16.08.02 6 - Graph Builder")[outlinebox(1)]<< journal;

and it is working now (removed the, height). Thanks.

What is the purpose of

,height
