Overlaying points on graph generated with Y Function()

barnabei — Sun, 21 May 2023 01:56:39 GMT

Hi all,

I'm using Y Function () to visualize function, but I'd also like to overlay individual points on the graph. These points will reside on the function line. If that makes sense. Attached example in excel that I'd like to recreate in JMP.

If you are drawing your graph from scratch, using a Graph Box() and then using the Y function() for drawing your curve, you can simply add to your code and use the Marker() function to draw your points at the X,Y locations you want.

Another way to accomplish this would be to us the Graph Builder Platform to draw your scatterplot values, and then just add the Y Function() as a graphical addition( << add graphics script) to the Graph Builder output.

@txnelson answer about Graph Builder is correct if you are using a data table. You can use a data table from within the graph box example, but it won't get all the graph builder features (scaling the axes, legends, fitted lines, ease-of-use.) Interactively, with graph builder, right-click->Customize->BigPlus to add a graphic script, then save the script when done from the graph builder red triangle.
