Grid line on Graph builder

Hi All

 

I have the following portion of a user input script. The script actually work well. The problem come from when I tried to add in grid line to the plot with jsl, that portion does not seems to work. I tried to replace X1 with x1col, Y1 with y1col(and so on) but does not seems to work too. When I hover the mouse to for example, X1, it is showing the correct column. I knew that I can just drag and drop but as I'm working on large data set and generating plots, it's good that I have them automated. Please advise how can I overcome this problem.

 

x1col = Column(dt, X1);
y1col = Column(dt, Y1);
y2col = Column(dt, Y2);
y3col = Column(dt, Y3);
y4col = Column(dt, Y4);
	
Graph Builder(
   
    Variables(X(Column(dt, X1)), Y(Column(dt, Y1)), Y(Column(dt, Y2)),Y(Column(dt, Y3)),Y(Column(dt, Y4)),
	
	 Group X( :Title )
    
    ),
    Elements( Position( 1, 1 ), Line( X, Y )),
	Elements( Position( 1, 2 ), Line( X, Y )),
	Elements( Position( 1, 3 ), Line( X, Y )),
	Elements( Position( 1, 4 ), 
		//Bar( X, Y, Legend( 36 ), Summary Statistic( "N" ) )
    Bar( X, Y, Summary Statistic( "N" ))),
   
   SendToReport(
		Dispatch(
			{},
			X1,
			ScaleBox,
			{Label Row( Label Orientation( "Vertical" ) )}
		),
		Dispatch( {}, :Y1, ScaleBox, {Label Row( Show Major Grid( 1 ) )} ),
		Dispatch(
			//{},
			Y2,
			ScaleBox,
			{Label Row( Show Major Grid( 1 ) )}
		),
		Dispatch( {}, Y3, ScaleBox, {Label Row( Show Major Grid( 1 ) )} ),
		Dispatch( {}, Y4, ScaleBox, {Label Row( Show Major Grid( 1 ) )} )
		) 
    
    ),

Thank you.

Re: Grid line on Graph builder

The GraphBuilder Scale Box Dispatch statement wants the column name.  A simple method to do that is to use

colref << getname.

 

Here is a slight modification of the script you provided using the JMP sample data table Candy Bars.jmp

Names Default to Here(1);
//Open the JMP Sample Data table Candy Bars, create a 4x2 display 
dt = Open("$Sample_Data/Candy Bars.jmp");

dt << select where(!Contains({"M&M/Mars","Hershey"}, :Brand) );
dt << delete rows();
:Brand << set name("Title");


x1col = Column(dt, "Carbohydrate g");
y1col = Column(dt, "Sugars g");
y2col = Column(dt, "Total fat g");
y3col = Column(dt, "Saturated fat g");
y4col = Column(dt, "Protein g");


candy_gb1 = dt << Graph Builder( 
  Variables(
     X(x1col), Y(y1col), Y(y2col),Y(y3col),Y(y4col),
	 Group X( :Title )
   ),
    Elements( Position( 1, 1 ), Line( X, Y ) ),
	Elements( Position( 1, 2 ), Line( X, Y ) ),
	Elements( Position( 1, 3 ), Line( X, Y ) ),
	Elements( Position( 1, 4 ), 
		//Bar( X, Y, Legend( 36 ), Summary Statistic( "N" ) )
    Bar( X, Y, Summary Statistic( "N" )) ),
	SendToReport(
		Dispatch(
			{},
			x1col<<getname,
			ScaleBox,
			{Label Row( Label Orientation( "Vertical" ) )}
		),
		Dispatch( {}, y1col<<getname, ScaleBox, {Label Row( Show Major Grid( 1 ) )} ),
		Dispatch( {}, y2col<<getname, ScaleBox, {Label Row( Show Major Grid( 1 ) )} ),
		Dispatch(
			{},
			y3col<<getname,
			ScaleBox,
			{Label Row( Show Major Grid( 1 ) )}
		),
		Dispatch( {}, y4col<<getname, ScaleBox, {Label Row( Show Major Grid( 1 ) )} )
	)
);
