Journal in 2 or 3 columns

Hello guys,

I calculated 2 tables HOT_per_skew and COLD_per_skew

when I added these 2 tables to the Journal, I got the vertical position.

My question is, how can I present these 2 tables in a Horizontal position by JSL script?

HOT_per_skew << Journal ( ) << Close Window ( );
COLD_per_skew<< Journal ( ) << Close Window ( );

Re: Journal in 2 or 3 columns

I think you can just wrap them in H List Box (Or Lineup Box(N Col(2))

Names Default To Here(1); 

dt1 = open("$SAMPLE_DATA/Big Class.jmp");
dt2 = open("$SAMPLE_DATA/Big Class Families.jmp");

Current Journal();

H List Box(dt1 << get as report, dt2 << get as report) << journal;

Close(dt1, nosave);
Close(dt2, nosave);

Re: Journal in 2 or 3 columns

You can use Text boxes

Names Default To Here(1); 

dt1 = open("$SAMPLE_DATA/Big Class.jmp");
dt2 = open("$SAMPLE_DATA/Big Class Families.jmp");

Current Journal();

H List Box(dt1 << get as report, dt2 << get as report) << journal;

Close(dt1, nosave);
Close(dt2, nosave);

Text Box("My text") << Journal;

but I would suggest you build your report in new window and then turn it into journal when it is ready (this can be a bit difficult with reports)

Names Default To Here(1); 

dt1 = open("$SAMPLE_DATA/Big Class.jmp");
dt2 = open("$SAMPLE_DATA/Big Class Families.jmp");

nw = New Window("",
	V List Box(
		Text Box("My Text")
	),
	H List Box(
		dt1 << get as report, 
		dt2 << get as report
	);
);

nw << journal;
nw << close window

Re: Journal in 2 or 3 columns

Thank you!
BTW also, do I have the option to add text in the Journal by script JSL?
