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.

Label Alignment in Graph Builder

It would be great if labels in Graph Builder could be more easily aligned, e.g. by a right-click -> Align Labels, or Align Selected Labels (alongside an invisible vertical or horizontal axis). If something like this already exists, please give me a hint...

 

I often label e.g. two-dimensional outliers by their serial number, align labels to make them readable, resize the graph at some point, and then have to start over again (see the Hollywood Movies example below).

 

Maybe it could be possible to group selected labels (e.g. after alignment) and then move them around as one group of labels.

Or maybe after alignment, labels could be allocated their X and Y coordinates at that moment, and when resizing the graph, only font sizes for labels are adjusted for readability, but labels remain at their coordinates.
