What inspired this wish list request? Due to a change in default for JMP17. Previously in JMP16, the jitter default looks like this:
![Vball247_1-1687796240449.png Vball247_1-1687796240449.png](https://community.jmp.com/t5/image/serverpage/image-id/54171iDF118961E3153826/image-size/medium?v=v2&px=400)
But the JMP17 default is now something like this:
![Vball247_2-1687796350349.png Vball247_2-1687796350349.png](https://community.jmp.com/t5/image/serverpage/image-id/54172iD9F0175A5B62F89F/image-size/medium?v=v2&px=400)
We see in the Fit Y by X platform and its preferences you can only use a boolean to turn jitter on/off.
Oneway(
Y( :Data ),
X( :Levels ),
X Axis Proportional( 0 ),
Points Jittered( 1 ),
We did discover by doing a right-click and select Customize > Marker, that the option to change the jitter is shown

Oneway(
Y( :Data ),
X( :Levels ),
Means( 1 ),
Box Plots( 1 ),
Mean Diamonds( 1 ),
X Axis Proportional( 0 ),
Points Jittered( 1 ),
SendToReport(
Dispatch(
{},
"Oneway Plot",
FrameBox,
{Frame Size( 607, 243 ), DispatchSeg(
Marker Seg( 1 ),
Set Jitter( "Random Uniform", "X", 1, 0, 355 )
What is the improvement you would like to see? We would like the option to set the type of jitter in the Fit Y by X platform similar to the Graph Builder jitter options. To also allow this in the Preferences for the platform.
Graph Builder(
Size( 526, 448 ),
Show Control Panel( 0 ),
Variables( X( :Levels ), Y( :Data ), Color( :Levels ) ),
Elements(
Points(
X,
Y,
Legend( 7 ),
Jitter( "Random Uniform" ),
Jitter Limit( 0.4381 )
)
)
);
Why is this idea important? To standarize reports for viewers preferences, instead of having to change each time, or run a script that adjusts the elements of the Fit Y by X, should allow this platform to change as a preference and a menu option in the Fit Y by X platform.
