JSL coding debug - help needed with "Label"

[#1]

Hello,

In my JSL code, I am using 

dtt<<Set Label Columns (:skew);

and I can see in the table that label icon is being added next to skew. Then I am using graph builder and within that routine, I have 

Show labels(1),

But when plots are being generated, it is not showing Label. Can you please help on this? Do I need to add anything else?

Thanks much

[#2]

Usually you enable labels from Label section on the left (this can be different for different plot types)

After you are happy with your graph builder, copy the script

Names Default To Here(1);
dt = Open("$SAMPLE_DATA/Cities.jmp");
dt << Set Label Columns(:City, :State);

gb = dt << Graph Builder(
	Size(528, 454),
	Show Control Panel(0),
	Variables(X(:Longitude), Y(:Latitude)),
	Elements(Points(X, Y, Legend(3), Label("Label by Row")))
);

Thank you for the tips but unfortunately still Not working. I highlighted in bold the lines in my JSL.  

dtt<<Set Label Columns (:skew);

Summarize(dtt, byGroup0 = by (:layout));

Summarize( dtt, byGroup1 = by( :Label ));

Summarize( dtt, byGroup2 = by( :Vt_flavor));

Summarize( dtt, byGroup3 = by( :Z_width));

For (nn =1, nn <= N Items (byGroup0), nn++,

For ( ii = 1, ii <= N Items( byGroup1 ), ii++,

For ( jj = 1, jj <= N Items( byGroup2 ), jj++,

For ( kk = 1, kk <= N Items( byGroup3 ), kk++,

dtt << select where(:Label == byGroup1[ii] & :Vt_flavor == byGroup2[jj] & :Z_width == byGroup3[kk] & :layout ==byGroup0[nn] );

//show(ii,jj,kk,bygroup1[ii],bygroup2[jj],bygroup3[kk]);

sel = dtt << get selected rows;

If( n rows(sel) > 0,

//show("inside",ii,jj,kk);

dt = dtt << subset( selected rows(1), selected columns(0));

gb = dt << Graph Builder(

Size( 266, 228 ),

Show Control Panel( 0 ),

Variables( X( :nmos ), Y( :pmos ), Overlay( :PDK ) ),

Elements( Points( X, Y, legend( 5 ), Label("Label by Row") ) ),

Show labels(1),

SendToReport(

Dispatch(

{},

"nmos",

ScaleBox,

{Label Row(

{Show Major Grid( 1 ), Show Minor Labels( 1 ), Show Minor Grid( 1 )}

)}

),

could you please generate a code - as short as possible.
Starting with loading a data table , e.g.

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

 you have to activate the labels in the control panel:

dt = Open( "$SAMPLE_DATA/Big Class.jmp" );
:name<< Label( 1 ); // no effect, label is already activated by default for this column
Graph Builder(
	Size( 451, 447 ),
	Graph Spacing( 4 ),
	Variables( X( :height ), Y( :weight ), Overlay( :sex ) ),
	Elements( Points( X, Y, Label( "Label by Row" ) ), Smoother( X, Y ) )
);

As an alternative, you can tag rows with the "label" flag - and show labels for the tagged rows:

My sincere apology for dumb questions. Not sure what you meant by "Activate the label". I am just running JSL on my database and not clicking on any GUI to activate anything. I thought that setting the column "skew" as label and then what you suggested to add "Label by row" - it should work? Can you please elaborate on the activation part in JSL script (not clicking on any GUI)? Thanks

please share your code and we can check ...

The smart/lazy way to use JMP:
use the GUI and let JMP generate the code.

Attached are the JSL code and associated data table. Also the graph size is always coming to be Size( 1401, 909 ) even though my code has it as Size (266,228). Appreciate if you can also take a look on that. Thank you so much for your time and help.

Using GUI to create the script means, that do it once, copy the script and use that JMP generated JSL going forward. When JMP is able to create those scripts properly (like running platforms) it is the best JSL scripter you have.

On your issue: solve the issues for single graph first (so drop the loops and use one subset). After you get that working as intended, then add the loops as it makes it much easier to debug. When I run your plot for one I get this

My guess is that your problems are within the graphic script. I'm not exactly sure what you are trying to do within it?
