How to use JSL to automatically select the specified color gradient form?

For example, the height column of "Big Class. JMP ", select the color gradient specified by ②.

 

Thanks!

Re: How to use JSL to automatically select the specified color gradient form?

OK, now I see what you want. It takes two steps: (1) specify color gradient and (2) color the cells. This example code illustrates the two steps and the syntax:

 

Names Default to Here( 1 );

// example data set
dt = Open( "$SAMPLE_DATA/Big Class.jmp" );

// add color gradient as a column property
:height
	<< Set Property( "Color Gradient", {"Green Yellow Red", Range( {51, 70, 62.55} )} )
	<< Color Cell by Value;

Thank markbailey!


I have tried several methods, but still have no solution.

 

dt = Open( "$SAMPLE_DATA/Big Class.jmp" );
dt:height<<Set Property( "Value Colors", {"Female" = 3, "Male" = 5} );Wait(0);
dt = Open( "$SAMPLE_DATA/Big Class.jmp" );
dt:height<<Set Property( "Value Colors", Color Theme( "White to Blue" ) );Wait(0);

Re: How to use JSL to automatically select the specified color gradient form?

That failure is because you are using the wrong property. The documentation that I cited clearly distinguished between associating colors and gradients:

 

Specify the gradient and the range and midpoint for Value Gradient:

 

col << Set Property( "Color Gradient", { "White to Blue", Range( { 18, 60, 25 } ) } );

Thank markbailey!


I still don't understand. That's all I can write.But the table doesn't change at all.

Re: How to use JSL to automatically select the specified color gradient form?

I want to use JSL to directly achieve the effect of height column loading color gradient.

Re: How to use JSL to automatically select the specified color gradient form?

The only change in the data table will be observed in the Columns panel after you add a column property. That change is indicated by the asterisk after the column name height in the panel. The data column and data table do not display a color gradient. The Graph Builder uses the color gradient. This script illustrates the effect.

 

Names Default to Here( 1 );

// sample data
dt = Open( "$SAMPLE_DATA/Fitness.jmp" );

// sample plot using defaut color role
gb = dt << Graph Builder(
	Size( 531, 454 ),
	Show Control Panel( 0 ),
	Variables( X( :Runtime ), Y( :Oxy ), Color( :Weight ) ),
	Elements( Points( X, Y, Legend( 9 ) ), Smoother( X, Y, Legend( 10 ) ) )
);

// look at default result
Wait( 2 );

// change color gradient
:Weight << Set Property( "Color Gradient", {"White to Blue", Range( {18, 60, 25} )} );

// observe new gradient in Graph Builder
