JMP16: Life Distribution Platform Default Distribution

[#1]

I am using the Life Distribution Platform > Compare Groups tab. I have the continuous variable in the Y then categorical variables in the Grouping & By fields. So several distributions are generated. The default distribution is Nonparametric. Is there a way to change the default distribution to Weibull within the platform without scripting? I need to manually click the Weibull radio button for each distribution generated. I checked under File > Preferences > Platforms > Life Distribution but I am not seeing that option available there. is it somewhere else or not possible? I like the ability, after changing all to Weibull distributions, to be able to Make Combined Data Table for the Weibull Parametric Estimates.

Unfortunately, it cannot be done in existing releases. But in the next major release, JMP 18, you can do so by changing preference.
