How do I plot row number in Graph Builder?

As a former gnuplot user, I could plot column "0" as one of the axis, and it would plot the row number on that axis.  

 

Obviously I could do this with a formula column ("row()"), but is there a way to do this without having to create a new column in my table?

Right-click on a column name in a dialog box and choose Row > Row. This will add a temporary variable for the row number which can be used like any variable in your data table.

Right-click on the column name in the Graph Builder interface? Wow, I had no idea that existed! Thank you!

That feature exists everywhere in JMP, not just the Graph Builder. It is called temporary variables. You can use it for many common transformations/formulas.
