With Fit to Window turned off, how to keep x-axis and legends always visible while scrolling in Graph Builder?

Hi JMP community, I would like to make a very large Graph Builder with many graphs sharing the same x-axis, stacked vertically with their own y-axes. Fit to Window has to be turned off, so that individual graphs will not be too small, and I can scroll through them. But it is difficult to refer to x-axis and the graph legends. Example attached using sample data. Is there a solution to keep the x-axis and legends always visible while scrolling? Something similar to putting a "scroll lock" on a column in a large data table

You could stack your data and then use Page

Other option could be to use Column Switcher but then you can only view one column at the time

Thanks for the workaround suggestions. Both options are not ideal since I have to do this frequently and quickly for large number of parameters. But they work for the meantime. I would still file a wishlist for improvement

It would still be a workaround, but you could create a script to create the plots for you to make it slightly faster and easier.

Hi @leonjmp ,

 

I don't think there's a native way to achieve that without scripting - but this a great idea and I think would be good to add to the JMP Wish List.

 

Thanks,

Ben
