Plot 2D Trace

[#1]

Is it possible to generate a 2D trace in JMP? I.e., plot a list of x/y coordinates, connecting consecutive points with a line, as shown in the attached PNG?

Something like:

NamesDefaultToHere(1);

n= 10;

x = J(n, 1, RandomInteger(0, 100));

y = J(n, 1, RandomInteger(0, 100));

NewWindow("XY Trace", GraphBox(PenColor("Red"), Line(x,y)));

Look in the JSL Guide or the Scripting Index for more details on the options for 'GraphBox()'. To get values from a column in a table into a matrix send the column a 'GetAsMatrix()' message.

I used the Bubble Plot platform...

//Create a table with the drawing points, repeat that origin (start and finish)

drawDT = New Table( "Draw Plot",

  Add Rows( 6 ),

//Set the values for the coordinates to the table

  New Column( "X", Numeric, "Continuous", Format( "Best", 12 ), Set Values( [0, 0.3, 0.7, 1, 0.4, 0] ) ),

  New Column( "Y", Numeric, "Continuous", Format( "Best", 12 ), Set Values( [0, 0.9, 1, 0.1, 0.3, 0] ) ),

  New Column( "Draw Order", Numeric, "Continuous", Format( "Best", 12 ), Set Values( [1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6] ) )

);

//Create a new window with bubble plot

New Window( "Draw Plot",

//On close of the window, the data table is deleted

  <<on close( Close( drawDT ) ),

  Bubble Plot( X( :X ), Y( :Y ), Time( :Draw Order ), Time Index( 6 ), Trail Bubbles( "All" ), Trail Lines( "All" ), )

);

start with a data table

Open graph builder and drag the variables to the axes

turn off the points and smoother and turn on the line and select row order

click done and save the script (red triangle) if you want to run it again without all the drag-and-drop

Graph Builder(
  Show Control Panel( 0 ),
  Variables( X( :x ), Y( :y ) ),
  Elements(
  Line( X, Y, Legend( 3 ), Row order( 1 ), Summary Statistic( "Mean" ) )
  )
)

repeat the first point to close the loop if desired.
