Benchmark lines in histograms

I would like to have horizontal lines across a histogram.  For example if I have a histogram with total nitrates I would like to insert a horizontal line for minimal departure from normal and a line for major departure from normal.  thanks

Re: Benchmark lines in histograms

Here is an example using JMP 14.  Axis settings is not restricted to JMP Pro

If you create a histogram using either the Distribution Platform, or Graph Builder, right click on the axis and select "Axis Settings"

A dialog box will come up where you can enter Reference Line specifications

Fill out the information you want to be displayed and then click on OK, and you will get the reference lines displayed on the graph

Right click on the axis that you want the lines added to, and then in the dialog box that appears, add the reference lines you want.

I don't get a dialog box when I right click on the axis, just a drop down menu with options of swap, remove font, etc. This is JMP 14 I forgot to mention. thanks
