Graph Builder: reference line, different for each Y group

[#1]

Hello everybody,

I would like to know if it is possible to define separated reference lines on the X axis when we have Y groups.

Here is an example using the BigClass data table.

I can define two reference lines, but I would like to display the red one only on the top graph and the blue one on the bottom graph.

Here is what I get:

Here is what I would like to get:

Is there a way to do that without playing with the menu Customize > Script ...?

Thanks in advance!

Graph Builder is designed to facilitate comparisons within and between groups. So, if you have multiple FrameBoxes from using grouping variables then, as you say, the x and y axes (and any reference lines associated with these) will always be common. So I believe the answer is 'no', not without resorting to JSL.

Fortunately, it's less JSL than one might expect:

right click / customize / + / type:

and here an option with no JSL:
use a  "bar" graph  (with "float" style) with Response axis = X

"no JSL" - but here it is:

Names Default to Here(1);
dt = Open( "$SAMPLE_DATA/Big Class.jmp" );
// via right click - new formula column
New Column( "Mean[height][sex]",	Formula( Col Mean( :height, :sex ) )); 


Graph Builder(
	Variables(
		X( :height ),
		X( :"Mean[height][sex]"n, Position( 1 ) ),
		Y( :weight ),
		Group Y( :sex ),
		Color( :sex )
	),
	Elements(
		Points( X( 1 ), Y),
		Smoother( X( 1 ), Y ),
		Bar( X( 2 ), Bar Style( "Float" ), Response Axis( "X" ) )
	)
);

Hi @hogi ,
That's a very nice way to answer the problem, thanks! But if I understand correctly, it works only if we want to highlight a summary statistic value (mean, median...) and not a user defined threshold?

[#6]

The basic step is 

Bar Style( "Float" )

It can also be used for user defined thresholds. Jus store it in a column and plot it as Bar chart with Bar Style("Float")

Clear, thanks for your help @hogi !
