JMP Wish List

We want to hear your ideas for improving JMP software.

  1. Search: Please search for an existing idea first before submitting a new idea.
  2. Submit: Post your new idea using the Suggest an Idea button. Please submit one actionable idea per post rather than a single post with multiple ideas.
  3. Kudo & Comment Kudo ideas you like, and comment to add to an idea.
  4. Subscribe: Follow the status of ideas you like. Refer to status definitions to understand where an idea is in its lifecycle. (You are automatically subscribed to ideas you've submitted or commented on.)

We consider several factors when looking for what ideas to add to JMP. This includes what will have the greatest benefit to our customers based on scope, needs and current resources. Product ideas help us decide what features to work on next. Additionally, we often look to ideas for inspiration on how to add value to developments already in our pipeline or enhancements to new or existing features.

Graph Builder new option: global fit

☑ cool new feature
☑ could help many users!

☑ removes something that feels like a „bug“

☐ nice to have

☐ nobody needs it

 

What inspired this wish list request? 

Via the variables settings in Graphbuilder a user can disable some variables for a specific plot style.
Extremely useful!!

... but it could be even better. At the moment, not ALL variables are listed, e.g. X / Y Group and Wrap are missing.

missing: Wrap, X Group, Y Group ?!?!?

 

What is the improvement you would like to see? 

Add checkboxes for the missing variables - to give the user the chance to disable them.

 

Why is this idea important? 

If a user uses Wrap to split a plot into several subplots -  at the moment, there is no possibility to generate a COMMON FIT (with all data points) and display it an all subplots. such a common fit could be used to see how the individual fits deviate from this common fit.

 

Here is a workaround: 

Before splitting the plot into subplots, generate a fit and save the formula to the table. Add the fitted data points and split the plot.

 

With the possibility to disab´ple the Wrap (or X /Y Group) variable for the Linear fit, the final plot could be generated directly with GraphBuilder without a woraround.

 

cool, isn't it?

 

 

 

Names Default to Here(1);

// generate the plot without splitting it
dt = Open( "$SAMPLE_DATA/Big Class.jmp" );

	myPlot= Data Table( "Big Class" ) << Graph Builder(
		Size( 582, 401 ),
		Summary Statistic( "Median" ),
		Graph Spacing( 4 ),
		Variables( X( :height ), Y( :weight ) ),
		Elements( Points( X, Y, Legend( 12 ) ), Line Of Fit( X, Y, Legend( 14 ) ) )
	);
	myPlot << Update Element( 1, 1, 2, {Save Formula} );

// save the fit
:"Line of Fit(weight)"n << set name("common fit");

// use it in additional to the data points
myPlot << Add Variable({:common fit , Role("Y"), Position(1)});

// split the plot
myPlot << Add Variable({:sex, Role("wrap")})

In addition, for some variables, there are check boxes, but they don't have an effect -> enable them!

X=name IS DISABLED, but it's used to generate the plot.
