Many of us would prefer to make rote tasks as efficient and speedy as possible, but sometimes you just can’t get around them. Manually entering new data to an existing data table is one of these tasks. If you find yourself entering new data by copy-pasting from previous cells and wishing there was just a drop-down for some of these values, look no further. In this session, discover a practical pattern for building your own click-to-log dialog in JSL that captures clean, consistent entries and appends them to your table.
Learn how to:
- Identify the basic components of a dialog window in JMP.
- Script date, numeric, text, and drop-down fields in JSL.
- Validate inputs and append each submission as a new row in a data table.
- Package the final script as an add-in and launch it from the menu.
This session is designed for beginner to intermediate JSL users who want to start building interactive dialogs in JMP. We show how to create a simple food log add-in as an example, but the approach generalizes to any quick data-entry task. Leave with a clear understanding of the parts of a JMP dialog and a template that you can adapt into your own click-to-log add-in.
