Scatter plot x and y axis values

[#1]

Hi All, 

i would like to replicate the following scatter plots in JMP, the problem i am having is when i go to axis setting and request a log scale with a base 2 the scale starts from 1, so the scales is 1,2,4,8,16, 32, 64 etc i would like it to start at 5, 10, 20,40, 80,160,320 etc does anyone have any advice??

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks

@Mickyboy,

The tick increment is 2. This is happening either because inc is 2 or your frame size needs to be bigger to show all ticks.

Hi gzmorgan0,

no problems, i worked it out, thanks very much

Hi @gzmorgan0,

Its Ok, I have worked it out, I think I'm learning!!

Dispatch(
			{},
			"Graph Builder",
			FrameBox,
			{Marker Size( 5 ), Add Graphics Script(
				2,
				Description( "Script" ),
				Pen Color( "black" );
				Pen Size( 2 );
				Line Style( "Dotted" );
				Y Function( x, x );
			), Add Graphics Script(
				4,
				Description( "Script" ),
				Pen Color( "red" );
				Pen Size( 2 );
				Line Style( "Dotted" );
				X Function( y - 1, y );
			), Add Graphics Script(
				5,
				Description( "Script" ),
				Pen Color( "red" );
				Pen Size( 2 );
				Line Style( "Dotted" );
				X Function( y + 1, y );
			), Grid Line Order( 1 ), Reference Line Order( 3 )}
		)
	)
);

Congratulations!

@gzmorgan0,

thanks mate, I really do try to do a lot by myself, sometimes i jump the gun in asking for help, need a little more patience and belief!!!

Thanks again

Hi @gzmorgan0 ,

I need your assistance again if possible, i need another two reference lines on my chart, you produced the syntax for the equality reference line where x=y, if i wanted a line two represent a 100% increase for the values of x when the values of y = the original references line, so x= 5, 10, 20, 40, 80, 160, 320, 640, 1280, 2560 where y= 10, 20, 40, 80,160, 320, 640, 1280, 2560, 5120. Is this possible?

The expression for the identity line:

Y Function( x, x );

 in the graphics script becomes this expression for the 100% increase:

Y Function( 2*x, x );

Hi Dan,

@Mickyboy figured out a solution, but he posted it a couple enties above.  The graph is rather unusual. The original task was to create a custom scale where the ticks/units were 5 * 2^x.  I reposted the small table with script attached.

Due to the unusual power scaling, of this graph, a solution to this the 100% increase/decrease is

Y Function( x - 1, x) and Y Function(x + 1, x)

or as Mickey figured out X Function( y - 1, y) and X Function( y + 1, y) 

Log and Power scaled axes can be challenging when it comes to reference functions.

Hi @Mark_Bailey.,

Thanks for your input, appreciate it, i eventually figured it out.
