JMP Wish List
We want to hear your ideas for improving JMP. Share them here.☐ cool new feature
☐ could help many users!
☐ removes a bug
☑ nice to have
☐ nobody needs it
What inspired this wish list request?
- The analysis options in Life Distribution are wonderful.
- Graph Builder is great for generating condensed Trellis Plots.
How to combine both of them to generate a report like this Minitab graph:
Distribution graphs are the main reason we still use Minitab in our department.
Currently it still produces such graphs faster and easier than jmp.
(Minitab has much less evaluation options in the reports, but that's secondary if you first need the distribution graphs.)
Example w/ data from Big class.jmp
Minitab: Automatic settings, 3 clicks in dialogue window
jmp (no JSL, just std. options)
1. Graph Builder
Automatic settings
y-axis manually set to Probability Normal and adjusted to 0.01 and 0.99
2. Lifetime Distribution
Automatic settings. Nice graphics, but
- No panel option
- No info about distribution type (Normal, Weibull,...) and CI
- Legend missing when copied w/ "Copy Graph" (available in original report)
Summary: Such graphs in the graph builder w/ the above issues fixed would really be appreciated.
And it seems like most pieces are already available, but in diff. places/platforms?
It's unlikely that Graph Builder will be enhanced with all the functionality which is available via Life Distribution
What is the improvement you would like to see?
For Life Distribution, add an one page overview graph with all plots with the nice fits from Life Distribution
[edited]
with
a) info about the underlying fit (like in Minitab)
b) button for single click copy to clipboard (incl.info from a) and the legend)
c) options to globally change the fitting settings.
Why is this idea important?
In Minitab this Graph can be created with 3-4 Mouse clicks. In JMP this feature is not available.
