Translation in the JMP User Community

[#1]

It appears that our new automatic translation is overly aggressive.

Best practice is to turn off the translation checkbox in the upper right before copying and pasting JSL.

We're going to keep working on ways to avoid this problem.

thanks jeff.perkinson,

i have just removed the translator and re-posted with no problems (i hope).

[#3]

Thanks, ron_horne.

No need to repost. Readers (not authors) need to turn off the translation to ensure that the JSL hasn't been "translated" to something incorrect.

On a related note, we can insert a code snippet with Insert>>Syntax Highlighting in the advance editor.  Will this code by auto-translated?  In addition, why isn't there a JSL option?

dt = Open( "$SAMPLE_DATA/Hurricanes.jmp" );;
// this produces the contures in linear scale
plot1 = dt << Bivariate( Y( :Latitude ), X( :Longitude ), Nonpar Density );
// extract the density to the data table
plot1 << (Curve[1] << Save Density Quantile);
plot1 << (Curve[1] << color by density Quantile);
// transform the density as you wish in a new column
dt << new column ("Ln Density", formula (ln(:Density)));
// plot the transformed density
dt << Contour Plot(
     X( :Latitude, :Longitude ),
     Y( :Ln Density ),
     Show Data Points( 0 ),
     Fill Areas( 0 ),
     Label Contours( 0 ),
     Transform( "None" ),
     Specify Contours(
          Min( -7 ),
          Max( -1 ),
          N( 7 ),
          Contour( 1, -7, -5793511 ),
          Contour( 2, -6, -8423637 ),
          Contour( 3, -5, -10725064 ),
          Contour( 4, -4, -12632256 ),
          Contour( 5, -3, -12885662 ),
          Contour( 6, -2, -13595764 ),
          Contour( 7, -1, -14828355 )
     ),
     SendToReport(
          Dispatch( {}, "Contour Legend", FrameBox, {Frame Size( 102, 235 )} )
     )
);
// another plotting option - a mix of linear coloring and the log scale.
Scatterplot 3D(
     Y( :Latitude, :Longitude, :Ln Density ),
     Frame3D(
          Set Grab Handles( 0 ),
          Set Rotation( -56.0113386746381, -13.7470705335584, 1.38294617183857 )
     )
);

Looks like it doesn't auto-translate

[#6]

Yes, code inserted using the Syntax Highlighting is translated.

We'll work on getting JSL syntax highlighting. In the meantime C++ works pretty well.

Can someone please tell me how to reference another forum member with a link?  Like this: jeff.perkinson,?

I copied and pasted from one of the postings to get that.

Hi PMroz​,

You can reference anything in the JMP User Community with an @ Mention.

Just type an @ sign and then start typing the title, name or other details of what you want to mention. The mention will be converted to a link automatically.
