Graph Builder: Points with identical x/y position

Graph Builder applies a clever scheme to determines which data points are actually processed.


Findings:

  • objects (raw x/y values)  outside the plot window are not displayed (e.g. x=1)
  • objects with IDENTICAL x and y values are displayed as a single object (the first one)
  • selected objects are displayed (even if it's a "second" object)
    analogously: objects with a marker/color row state are displayed
  • objects with different x values are displayed as multiple objects (tiny offsets like 1E-10 are enough)
  • objects with different Y values are displayed as multiple objects (an offset of 0.01 is enough, 0.001 is not enough)
  • objects with same x/y values, but different COLOR are displayed as multiple objects (sure: same holds for Overlay)

  • The effects are nicely visible for Marker Draw Expr(), but the same should hold for standard Markers as well.
    [For standard Markers, the functionality is difficult to detect, for Marker Draw Expr()it can have significant effects.]

Re: Graph Builder: Points with identical x/y position

recorded with JMP 19.1
The behavior might be different with other versions of JMP ...
