JSL - Graph Builder - Capture FrameBox and Axis Boxes without labels, title, and legend?

Hi JMP Community,

I'm working on a simple JSL script that assembles multiple plots into a 6 x 5 grid. While I get acceptable results by capturing the plot area using the following line of code: img = gbr[FrameBox (1)] << get picture; where gbr is a Graph Builder report, I have not been able to find the right item to call in the Tree Structure to also capture the axis values (without the labels; see below an approximation of what I'd like to capture). Is there a direct capture method that I could use or do I need to capture the entire plot structure and "delete the unwanted elements? Or, is there a completely different method you would suggest?

Thank you for your help.

Here is one approach......I attempted to use "Remove Axis Label" on the graph builder window, but it failed to work.  So I had to get a bit more specific.

listbox.PNG

names default to here(1);
dt=open("$SAMPLE_DATA/big class.jmp");

gb = Graph Builder(
	Size( 528, 456 ),
	Show Control Panel( 0 ),
	Variables( X( :weight ), Y( :height ) ),
	Elements( Points( X, Y, Legend( 6 ) ), Line Of Fit( X, Y, Legend( 8 ) ) )
);

gbr = gb << report;
gbr[LegendBox(1)]<<delete;
gbr[GraphBuilderComponentBox(1)][TextEditBox(1)]<<set text("");
gbr[GraphBuilderTitleBox(3)][TextEditBox(1)]<<set text("");
gbr[GraphBuilderTitleBox(4)][TextEditBox(1)]<<set text("");

nwj=new window("The Picture",<<journal);
nwj<<append(gbr[ListBox(2)]<<get picture);

Hi Jim,
Thanks for the solution, it works exactly as advertised with the Big Class example but it returns some unexpected results when I run it on my specific plot elements: I will have to look in more details for the right graphic element to capture after the unwanted elements are peeled off.
