JMP Wish List

Hello, The Sum function in New Formula Column -> Combine uses the formula of col1+col2+..... This does not work when there are cells with missing data. Can this function instead be implemented as sum(col1, col2, ....) to address this? Alternatively, can this be provided as a separate option in New Formula Column? It's currently confusing in that the name ("Sum") of the command implies the sum(col1, col2, ...) approach but that's not how it's been implemented. Thanks and regards Mehul Shroff

Trying to import data from Excel workbooks, manipulate and update the data, and then save the workbook again in Excel. However, since the option doesn't exist, the exported data must include the Column Headers on each of the Excel sheets. The functionality already exists for exporting .txt files to exclude column headers. I'd like to see this expand into the Create Excel Workbook function or Export tool.

Hello, I would like to request the following additions for the Color Maps for Correlations in the DOE platforms: - Currently, the Special Purpose designs (e.g., Space-filling) do not have the option to generate a color map for correlations, unlike more traditional platforms such as Custom DOE. Can this be added? - When using the Compare Designs platforms, the color map block does not have a hot-key menu to change the color scheme from grayscale to blue-gray-red. Can this feature be added? I understand that there is currently a workaround available to customize the color scheme from the menu obtained when right-clicking on the map. Thanks and regards Mehul Shroff cc: @PatrickGuiliano

Hello, It would be helpful to add an option to the Tables -> Subset dialog to allow a user to include the row #s of the original dataset that are included in the subset. Regards Mehul Shroff

What inspired this wish list request? We were trying to explain the out of control tests to a group of users familiar with control chart concepts but not with JMP(R) and we got confused by the Test 2 description. What is the improvement you would like to see? Simplify the description of test 2 to something like "nine points in a row on the same side of the center line." There is no need to mention "Zone C". Minitab(R) makes it simple: Why is this idea important? The people in my organization use JMP(R) for industrial situations and the Nelson definition you have in the documentation is confusing by mentioning zone C.

My coworker's JMP Pro license expired. Our IT department got thoroughly confused by an old license file that looked new. The JMP Pro features went away, my coworker freaked. IT eventually called me in after using up all their other options. And the coworker's menu Renew License option was greyed out. Please put renew license() into the Help>Scripting Index. I knew the option existed, but could not remember the syntax. And my search of the Scripting Index for "license" came up completely empty. I turned to google, which took too long.

fzellinger · ‎04-03-2023

What inspired this wish list request? My organization uses a lot of perl for data handling and transformation, as well as custom database access and analysis. What is the improvement you would like to see? Please add connectivity for perl (strawberry) similar to what exists currently for R and Python Why is this idea important? perl is a very stable language with a very large collection of useful modules (CPAN) which would greatly benefit JMP/perl users.

What inspired this wish list request? The JMP dynamic HTML in JMP 17 broke with our internal solution where dynamic HTML reports are saved on one department's website, but IFRAME embedded in another department's site (different server URL). The specific problem is that JMP 17's HTML javascript used 'window.parent.document', which makes the document in the IFRAME attempt to access the document in the parent window - which is a violation of browser/javascript cross-site scripting policies. What is the improvement you would like to see? There is no reason why JMP HTML documents cannot be stand-alone, and no reason why they need to access the parent window to an IFRAME. Please make sure that no JMP dynamic HTML javascript attempts to violate or cross the HTML parent/child window document boundary. Why is this idea important? Because it allows collaborative HTML document sharing.

What inspired this wish list request? Data table with columns that are used in groups that are not mutually exclusive. What is the improvement you would like to see? In the columns pane, in addition to being able to group columns it would be nice to have virtual groups that are not mutually exclusive. Why is this idea important? This helps to make sure that the intended columns in a large table are used as planned.

Hello, I have been working with distributions recently and while JMP makes it very easy to slice my data in different ways I have ran into the problem of sometimes having empty cells under some of the binning conditions. That being said I am doing counting of certain cells by their frequency and found it very useful to be able to normalize the counted cells by the total cells per each category which is sometimes a different number. Right now a distribution shows the number of missing cells per each category but you cannot save it in a further data table. I believe it would be very useful to have the missing values listed as a category or level in distributions so that it can be easily used in subsequent analyses. here is an example

Hello, Various analysis options available in Fit Y by X allow determination of which means are different from which other means. Can similar functionality be added for variances / std deviations? At present, it's only possible to determine whether multiple variances are statistically equal or if one or more are different (but not which ones). Regards Mehul Shroff

What inspired this wish list request? Data mining "bump hunting" algorithm that does not require an empirical model. Rather, it 'patiently' / incrementally searches hyper-boxes of input factors that maximize the response. What is the improvement you would like to see? From R: library(prim) library(MASS) data(Boston) x \<- Boston\[,5:6\] y \<- Boston\[,1\] boston.prim \<- prim.box(x=x, y=y, threshold.type=1) Why is this idea important?

What inspired this wish list request? We often deal with multi-step process optimization problems. For each step it is possible to use different technologies that have different factors or to simply bypass a step. In the diagram below, the first step can be avoided. In this case (Step 1 == "None"), it is imperative that the answer does not depend on solvent, time or temperature. For the second step, the Power must not influence the response if Step 2 == "A" (respectively for Mixing and Step 2 == "B"). This same kind of situation can be found in the case where we want to optimize both the quantity and the type of an ingredient (see https://community.jmp.com/t5/Discussions/How-do-I-indicate-that-a-mixture-factor-can-take-a-number-of/m-p/387422) What is the improvement you would like to see? The ideal would be if JMP allows to specify "conditionnal factors" when setting a model both in the DoE and Fit Model plateform. It could be similar to nested factors. Why is this idea important? Dealing with this kind of constraint could be done using a specific coding. That would avoid the user to implement the tricky solution proposed in the post quoted above.

☑ cool new feature ☑ could help many users! ☐ removes a „bug“ ☐ nice to have ☐ nobody needs it #myTop10_2023 ➜ Jmp18 :) What inspired this wish list request? Many of the plot types in Graph Builder have the option to apply a summary statistics before displaying the data, but Smoother doesn't have this feature. Therefore, the Smoother data can deviate a lot from what is plotted as Points or Line. What is the improvement you would like to see Please add the functionality of Summary Statistics also to Smoother. Why is this idea important? With the possibility to use a summary statistics for Smoother, it will be much easier to plot such curves and to get the smoother aligned to what the other plot types display. At the moment, the user has to re-program the functionality of Summary Statistics via Column formulas to preprocess the data to use it with Smoother. Names Default To Here( 1 ); dt = Open( "$SAMPLE_DATA/Big Class.jmp" ); Graph Builder( Size( 535, 458 ), Show Control Panel( 0 ), Summary Statistic( "Median" ), Graph Spacing( 4 ), Variables( X( :age ), Y( :height ) ), Elements( Points( X, Y, Legend( 5 ), Summary Statistic( "Min" ) ), Smoother( X, Y, Legend( 6 ) ), Line( X, Y, Legend( 7 ), Summary Statistic( "Min" ) ) ) ) ; more wishes submitted by

What inspired this wish list request? I have many files that I need to merge them. They are all in excel and they have the same name columns if the comparison of the tables had a button this could facilitate the life to check if there are any mistakes or even the possibility to do a matching button for the ones that are not the same spelling...Also, the possibility to add more comparison tables instead of only 2. This improvement could make it easier merging tables from different files and multiple ones. Helping researchers to do a bigger data bank.

Hello, I would like to request the option to do a Fit All for Discrete Fit in the Distribution Platform, similar to what's available for Continuous Fit. Regards Mehul Shroff

winfriedkoch0 · ‎03-18-2023

What inspired this wish list request? What is the improvement you would like to see? Please check the report generated by "Fit Proportional Hazards" when all observations in one group are censored. Why is this idea important? Removal of a possible (minor) error in JMP.

-What inspired this wish list request? We keep having a problem with imported data not matching JMP's default character set. The problem occurs when we manually create a table and then try to join to existing data and nothing matches. What is the improvement you would like to see? To be fair, you could argue this is an issue with the source data. However, it is hard to detect as the names can look exactly the same. It would be good if JMP could alert to such a situation and ask which character set to use or automatically convert to JMP default on import, remember the character set, and give user option on which character set to use on export. And/or provide tool in compare data tables that can identify differing character sets, and/or provide function that change character sets. Why is this idea important? The issue occurs too easily and is hard to detect because there is no visual difference in the characters.
