Community Wish List

☑ NO cool new feature but:  ☑ could help many Jmp users (!!!) ☑ removes bugs (!!!) ☐ just cosmetics / nice to have ☐ nobody needs it   What inspired this wish list request?    In the wish list, a user can suggest new features and improvements related to  Advanced Statistical Modeling Automation and Scripting Basic Data Analysis and Modeling Consumer and Market Research Content Organization Data Access Data Blending and Cleanup Data Exploration and Visualization Design of Experiments Mass Customization  Predictive Modeling and Machine Learning  Quality and Process Engineering  Sharing and Communicating Results   A long list of all the fields where Jmp is strong. I miss a Label like User Experience or JMP GUI.   What is the improvement you would like to see?  In the community, please add a Label User Experience or JMP GUI.   Why is this idea important?  Besides the WHAT, often it's the HOW that counts. When you do coaching, you realize how important it is that JMP is "round". Then you can coach the "concept" - not the details and workarounds. -> A better HOW can be just as important as a new WHAT. The new label can provide a home for such topics.   more wishes from  ... View more

Or some other way of tagging/getting attention from staff. Most important topics would be bug reports in my opinion, but most likely there are also others.   I personally don't like contacting JMP support regarding issues that have been posted to JMP community due to time it takes (it takes at minimum triple the amount of time than just answering the question). ...

I often see posts from days or weeks ago with zero responses that, if posted again, might elicit a response.  I think potential answerers are more likely to look at the topic if there are no responses (I could be wrong here?) so I hesitate from just replying to the message saying 'I don't know but maybe someone else does..'.  Is there, or could there be, a way to bring those topics back into circulation? ...

The annoying behaviour of translating Community pages into the user language affects all non-english users reading the JMP Community websites. In most cases non-english users have set a default regional language in their browsers which affects all visited websites including the JMP Community website. The JMP Community website translates all content of the respective page into the user's browser language. This works for most content of the pages but sometimes: - the translation is incorrect or misleading - any JMP code will be translated as well which I assume was not intended. Of course I can disable the translation manually on the web page, but the translation will appear again if I am going to visit another JMP Community page. This is the reason I try to limit my usage of the JMP community website because of this annoying behaviour.   Therefore I propose to establish a setting for the user which disables the automatic page translation which is valid for a whole user session and allows me to view the page in the language the content creator has been chosen. ...

Currently when we use spoiler tag we end up with View More... as the "title.   Spoiler text here1 Spoiler text here2 We can attempt to add title ourselves before using spoiler title   My Title   Spoiler text here1 Spoiler text here2 but I would prefer if we had a way to set the title ourselves. We could either have separate spoiler tag which uses first line as the title OR add title section to the spoiler tags   And the end result would be something like and as expanded   ... View more

I recently tried to tag this post Can JMP run JMP? and I couldn't get it to appear to list of links.   My suggestion would be to allow tagging by using the post-id (283748). Currently it finds the posts which have that specific ID mentioned, but not the original post   ... View more

I find that the JMP community page loads relatively slower than other sites I am using. Would be nice to have this reduced, if possible. ... View more

When JSL Script is embedded into JMP Community Post add a button which will allow easy copying. Below is my great mock-up: Toolbar could most likely include other buttons than copy to clipboard, but I think that is the most important one. ... View more

Allow pasting Links in Link format. For example if I were to paste this from website https://www.jmp.com/en_fi/home.html   I would like it to be automatically formatted as Statistical Software | JMP (jmp.com) (or something similar). This would make it faster and easier to add hyperlinks to community posts. ... View more

When using @ to link to an post in the community, it would be nice to somehow be able to link to a specific message in the post (and especially solution). Using list of columns in formulas  vs Using list of columns in formulas post Using list of columns in formulas message Using list of columns in formulas solution   ... View more

Markdown is simple and quick to to write (if you know how) and doesn't have too many bells and whistles. It would make it faster to write posts with headers, lists and so on than the current interactive solution (using html?). As the syntax is different and not everyone is familiar with it, it should be implemented as an option. ... View more

The insert JSL script button needs a bit of work.  I would prefer if it didn't use a proportional font.  Also the syntax colorization gets lost sometimes.  Bottom line is that it doesn't match what you see in the JSL editor at all. ... View more

When posts get longer and longer and you have to make modifications to your post (adding <JSL> or spoiler tags), the posts might end up with massive amount of excessive white space. Example post: https://community.jmp.com/t5/Discussions/Use-expr-to-replace-variable-column-names-in-a-formula/m-p/713926/highlight/true#M89737 this seems to be because the editor we use to write posts leaves extra white space to the html code To fix these "easily" I basically have to open the html and fix it there.   What I would like is to the post editor be more robust against these as it would result in much better posting experience and cleaner posts in community. ...

Currently it is fairly difficult to find of some item has already been suggested in JMP Community's Wish List (you have to basically rely on the search). My suggestion is to add some sort of tagging system which could be then used to group the items together. Initial tags could be set by poster but developers could add more tags to improve the quality of tags. Tags could include function names, platform names and so on ... View more

From time to time I find issues with JMP's documentation be it improvement, something should be made more clear or an error. This happens quite often especially with Scripting Index. Currently I don't bother reporting these at all and it would be nice to be able to report them easily in JMP Community. It would allow other users to see the reports, so same issue won't be that easily reported multiple times.   Same could be said for different kinds of bug reports, as currently only way I know of reporting bugs is writing message to JMP support. ...

Add Hover Over when using @ to tag post (or user). Came across this idea when tagging older posts to this topic Color Tabulate report based on other column value and there were multiple posts with same name. So my suggestion is to add hover over when using @ to make it a bit easier to decide what you are tagging (also hover over could be helpful when viewing those from replies).   Slightly related to my other suggestion Allow @ referencing to specific messages in a post  ...
