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.

Provide us a way to use column properties to normalize our data based on limits

What inspired this wish list request? 

When working with hundreds of different measurements on different scales, comparing them quickly can be difficult. Capability Box Plot is one excellent tool to perform this type of comparison, but extending it beyond that Process Capability does take quite a lot of work. I have written my own add-ins to perform this type of comparison, but I feel like it could be also helpful to have it directly in JMP.

 

What is the improvement you would like to see? 

New column property "Normalization" which would scale the column based on set limits (or maybe this could be added to Spec Limits column property?).

 

New property could look something like this

Why is this idea important? 

Makes comparing different measurements easier with different platforms. For example I could "quickly" perform this type of comparison in graph builder

So, the data in the table stays like it is, but for Platforms and reports, the "normalized" data will be used?

 

Besides min/max 0..1, -1...1 range, 

please consider normalization centered around 0 ( ~ mean with 1= sigma) [not so useful]

and centered around 0 (~median with 1= MAD)

 

and whatever kind of normalization out there - to satisfy all needs.
