Customizing space between bars in graph builder/aligning data points to bar graph?

[#1]

Hello, 

I am trying to make a bar graph in JMP Pro and having an issue customizing my graphs. For example, for the graph below, I would like to adjust the spacing to make my two treatments (Mock/H1N1) closer together, while keeping the spacing the same between the hours variable. 

I'm able to achieve this when I overlay my treatment variable (see graph below), but then when I try to add the individual data points to my bar graph, they do not align with the bars. 

Is anyone able to help me figure this out? I would like to either adjust the spacing in the first graph, or know how to align the data points with the bars in the second graph. Thank you!

Welcome to the Community.

Here are the results I was able to produce

The first notable change, is that I specified Hours as an X axis group.  The grouping display has also been moved to the bottom of the chart.  By grouping, the different charts in the groups will be treated as separate charts.  So what I then did, wans to right click on the graph, and select Customize.  In the Customize window, I selected Bar, and set the Width Proportion to 1

I did this for each grouping.  This resulted in the below graph

I then went into the X axis settings and changed the range of the X axis from -.5 <> 1.5, to -1 <> 2

which resulted in the final chart, 

Here is the data table I used(it is also attached)

And the script that JMP produced that will recreate the chart

Graph Builder(
	Size( 518, 490 ),
	Show Control Panel( 0 ),
	X Group Edge( "Bottom" ),
	Variables(
		X( :Treatment ),
		Y( :Fold Change ),
		Group X( :Hours ),
		Color( :Treatment )
	),
	Elements(
		Bar( X, Y, Legend( 6 ), Error Interval( "Range" ) ),
		Points( X, Y, Legend( 7 ) )
	),
	SendToReport(
		Dispatch(
			{},
			"Treatment",
			ScaleBox,
			{Min( -0.5 ), Max( 1.5 ), Inc( 1 ), Minor Ticks( 0 )}
		),
		Dispatch(
			{},
			"400",
			ScaleBox,
			{Legend Model(
				7,
				Properties( 0, {Line Color( 0 )}, Item ID( "H1N1", 1 ) ),
				Properties( 1, {Line Color( 0 )}, Item ID( "Mock", 1 ) )
			)}
		),
		Dispatch( {}, "graph title", TextEditBox, {Set Text( "" )} ),
		Dispatch(
			{},
			"Graph Builder",
			FrameBox,
			{DispatchSeg( BarSeg( 1 ), {Set Width Proportion( 1 )} )}
		),
		Dispatch(
			{},
			"Graph Builder",
			FrameBox( 2 ),
			{DispatchSeg( BarSeg( 1 ), {Set Width Proportion( 1 )} )}
		),
		Dispatch(
			{},
			"Graph Builder",
			FrameBox( 3 ),
			{DispatchSeg( BarSeg( 1 ), {Set Width Proportion( 1 )} )}
		)
	)
);

Hello, Thank you for your very quick response! I'm a little new to JMP, so where do you go to specify hours as an x-axis group? I think once I do that I will be able to replicate the rest as you've shown. 

[#4]

I strongly suggest that you take the time to read the section on Graph Builder in the Essential Graphing document found in the JMP Documentation Library, available under the Help pull down menu

[#5]

I see, thank you! I was able to replicate the graph that you made. Is there any way to remove the lines between the x-axis groups? Thank you again for your help!

Try setting Graph Spacing to from red triangle menu

Great, got it! Thank you both for your help!

Sorry, I'm realizing there is another issue I'm having trouble editing now that I have made the x-axis groupings. I would like to edit the x-axis group labels (font/size, etc) as well as remove the border around this group label if possible, however there does not appear to be an option for this that I can find. I have also tried to look into the Essential Graphing document but have not found an answer to this. Is there a way to edit these group labels?

The font and size for the Group display is controlled by a global preference

     File=>Preferences=>Fonts

I am not aware of anyway to delete the border of the Group.
