Control Chart Builder: Bring markers to the front

Hi,

 

We recently converted our control charts to a control chart builder.  What we see now is that our markers are underneath the limit and average line, which makes it hard to see.  Is there an easy way to get them on top of these lines?

 

This is what we get:

This is what we want:

jan_solo_ff_1-1737649077287.png

 

I did notice that if I place a line manually it will go underneath the markers:

So worst case we could calculate and place the limits/avg as a custom line.

 

 

Control Chart Builder(
	Size( 600, 310 ),
	Show Two Shewhart Charts( 0 ),
	Show Limit Labels( 1 ),
	Show Limit Summaries( 0 ),
	Variables(
		Subgroup( :BATCH ),
		Y( :"Mean(RESULT)"n )
	),
	Chart(
		Points( Statistic( "Individual" ) ),
		Limits( Sigma( "Moving Range" ) ),
		Set Control Limits( {LCL( 150 ), UCL( 200 )} )
	),
	Show Control Panel( 0 ),
	SendToReport(
		Dispatch( {}, "Control Chart Builder", OutlineBox,
			{Set Title(
				"<Product> - <Parameter>"
			)}
		),
		Dispatch( {}, "Batch", ScaleBox,
			{Min( -0.5 ), Max( 47.3 ), Inc( 1 ), Minor Ticks( 0 )}
		),
		Dispatch( {}, "Mean(RESULT)", ScaleBox,
			{Min( 140 ), Max( 210 ), Inc( 10 ), Minor Ticks( 1 )}
		),
		Dispatch( {}, "graph display 1 title", TextEditBox, {Set Text( "" )} ),
		Dispatch( {}, "Subgroup display 1 title", TextEditBox,
			{Set Text( "Batch" )}
		),
		Dispatch( {}, "Y display 1 title", TextEditBox,
			{Set Text( "Parameter" )}
		)
	)
);

Is it possible to get the markers on top of the limits & average line?  How would we do that?

 

Thank you!

Re: Control Chart Builder: Bring markers to the front

Thank you,. this solved the issue.

To solve this in a script, add a dispatch:

 

Dispatch(
    {},
	"Control Chart Builder",
	FrameBox,
	{Reorder Segs( {1, 2, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8} )}
)
