How to add data labels in a Line Graph?

Hi group,

Any ideas on how to add data labels on a Line Graph, just like how we do for a Bar / Pie chart?

As of JMP 16, you can add labels to a line element by right clicking on the line in the legend and selecting one of the Label options, which include name, min, max, first, and last. Here's an example:

It does not give the option. I have the 16.1.0 version:

Click on the Legend, not on the graph.

Works fine - Thank you.

I suppose there isn't a way to add a label to each - is there?

Each line in the graph will be displayed in the legend. Right click on each one to select the labels for that individual line.

This was driving me crazy. What I ended up doing is adding a "floating" bar to the graph and turning on the labels for the bar. This gives you a horizontal line crossing the line data and the label adjacent to it.

It is a little clunky, but does the job. Now I am trying to figure out how to change the font size of the labels.
