How to customize Quantiles setting for a distribution in JMP?
Hi, there
Below is a example of quantiles for a distribution. The question is how can I change the ith setting to the value I want (eg. 95%th) besides the default setting (100%,99.5%,97.5%,...,0.5%,0.0%)? Appreciate valuable reply, thanks.
Quantiles
100.0% maximum 103.30
99.5% 95.76
97.5% 90.33
90.0% 83.16
75.0% quartile 76.65
50.0% median 69.98
25.0% quartile 63.41
10.0% 57.41
2.5% 50.77
0.5% 41.94
0.0% minimum 29.82

Re: [Discussion]How to customize Quantiles setting for a distribution in JPM?
I don't know of a way to customize all the quantiles that are shown in a Distribution report. However, there is a platform preference (File > Preferences > Platforms > Distribution) called "Set Quantile Increment". If you only want the 95th percentile, you can check the box for this preference and enter a value of 0.95. This will give you a Quantiles report in Distribution that has only two rows (0% and 95%). If you specify a smaller value (such as .1), then you can get the quantiles at each 10% increment.

The method you suggested is applicable, while can the quantiles table attached to the distribution chart(histogram) be changed?
