How to set color gradients for specified multiple columns stroke by stroke?

[#1]

Thanks Experts!

dt=Open("$SAMPLE_DATA/Big Class.jmp");
ca="height1";w=Try(Length(as Column(Current Data Table(),ca)<<get name),0)>0;if(w<1,New Column(ca));Column(ca)<<Formula( height*1.1 );Current Data Table()<<run formulas;Column(ca)<<deleteFormula;

not work

dt = Current Data Table();
colRange = {9, 10, 11};
minVals = {};
maxVals = {};
For(i = 1, i <= N Items(colRange), i++,
    col = Column(dt, colRange[i]);
    minVals[i] = Col Min(col);
    maxVals[i] = Col Max(col);
);
get_cell_color = Function({col, r, c},
    s = col << get script;
    p = 0;
    For(i = 1, i <= N Arg(s), i++,
        If(Head Name(Arg(s, i)) == "Color Cells",
            p = i;
            Break();
        );
    );
    If(p != 0,
        L = Arg(Arg(s, p), 1);
        color = {};
        For(i = 1, i <= N Items(L), i++,
            If(N Row(Loc(L[i][2], r)) == 1,
                color = L[i][1];
                Break();
            );
        );
        Return(color);
    ,
        normalized = 0.5;
        If(maxVals[c] != minVals[c],
            normalized = (col[r] - minVals[c]) / (maxVals[c] - minVals[c]);
        );
        red = Round(255 * normalized);
        green = 0;
        blue = Round(255 * (1 - normalized));
        Return(RGB Color(red, green, blue));
    );
);
For Each Row(
    For(i = 1, i <= N Items(colRange), i++,
        colIdx = colRange[i];
        col = Column(dt, colIdx);
        Eval(Parse(Eval Insert("Column(dt, ^colIdx^) << Color Cells({{get_cell_color(Column(dt, ^colIdx^), Row(), ^i^), {Row()}}})")));
    );
);

Are you trying to color the cells on a row using color gradient?

[#4]

No real idea what was requested here, but here is an attempt of a script to row wise gradient coloring

dt = Open("$SAMPLE_DATA/SAT.jmp");

cont_cols = dt << Get Column Names("Continuous", "String");
m = dt[0, cont_cols];
mn = (m - Min(m)) / (Max(m) - Min(m));

Ok.

But it seems that in this way, the entire three columns form a whole

It is not a single row of three cells that form a color whole.

Thanks!

[#6]

Implementing line by line would be too slow

[#7]

What are you trying to do?

[#8]

The color change of each row is only based on the comparison of the values in the three columns of that row.

Thanks!

[#9]

You have only three values for each row and wish to have just those three colors?

[#10 · Accepted solution]

Something like this?

Names Default To Here(1);

dt = Open("$SAMPLE_DATA/SAT.jmp");
dt << Delete Columns({"% Taking (2004)", "X", "Y", "Population", "Latitude", "Longitude"});

l = (dt << Get Column Names("Continuous", "String"))[1::3];
c1 = {"Green", "Yellow", "Red"};
c2 = [];

c3 = [];
For Each Row(dt,
	r = Floor(Ranking Tie(dt[Row(), l])); // no idea what should be done with ties
	c3 = c3 |/ r`;
);

dt << Begin Data Update;
For Each({i, idx}, l,
	m = c3[0, idx];
	g = Loc(m, 1);
	y = Loc(m, 2);
	r = Loc(m, 3);
	Column(dt, i) << Color Cells({{"Green", g}, {"Yellow", y},{"Red", r}});
);
dt << End Data Update;

or like this
