passing variables to variability chart

Hi all,

I am new to jmp. So please overlook syntax.

I am trying to plot a variability chart as below:

Variability Chart(

       X( :age :height :gender ),

          ......

----------------

age, gender , height are data columns

I want to make arguments to X variable and store it separately.

Something like declaring first

Xarg_list=[:age :height :gender ]

and then using:

Variability Chart(

       X=Xargs_list;

          ......

----------------

So If I want to add new column of weight or delete any column in list of arguments I just need to change Xargs_list

Xarg_list=[:age :height :gender :weight];


Any help with forming correct syntax is welcome.


Thanks

Thanks.
Could you understand how this script works:
(r << xpath("//IfBox/OutlineBox")) << delete;

Re: passing variables to variability chart

The xPath() function is described in the Scripting Index

     Help==>Scripting Index...........search for xpath

But in @ms example, the xPath() function looks through all of the display output to find all of the examples where an IfBox() is followed by an OutlineBox(), and returns all found examples, to which the <<delete message is passed to them, and that closes the Outline Boxes.  Look into the Scripting Guide for information on how to work with the Display Tree output in JMP
