How to make a plot of scatter with lines and markers like Excel?

Hi folks,

 

I am having a hard time of duplicating an Excel plot of scatter with lines and markers in JMP. The Excel table and plot is shown below as an example:

I know we need to format the data table in JMP, I did the following data table, but still cannot plot the scatter with lines and markers. , could anyone advise how can I do it in JMP? Thanks.

Hi Stan,

 

I have a problem at the first step. How do you create the two lines? I cannot connect the three points as shown below. Could you use the attached jmp file to see what I am missing? Thank you.

Drag Group onto the Overlay dropzone. That's it.
[x on x, y on y]

If you want to connect the lines instead of a smoother, just switch from smoother to "Line":

by right-clicking on the legend, you can adjust the colors and markers.

and via the red triangle menu, you can specify the legend position to be at the bottom.
