How to filter to show last n items/values?

Let's use the Semiconductor Capability sample data table for context.

Column lot_id has 13 levels.
Say I want to IMR control chart the last lot only or only the last 5 lots in the data table. Is there an elegant way to do this kind of last n filtering other than manually scrolling through the list of lot_id and manually picking the last 5 lots?

Alternatively, I have years of process sensor data in my data table. I only want to plot the last six months worth.

Good news! Starting in JMP 19.0, there is a new feature in Control Chart Builder called, "Set Last N Subgroups", which will adjust the X-axis to always show the most recent N subgroups, regardless of any updates to the data or chart.

Thanks for the confirmation, Annie!

I attended your talk at Discovery24, and I thought you mentioned this as an improvement. Looking forward to it.
