JMP Wish List

Hi JMP community, One of the assumptions of logistic regression is linearity of variables and log odds. However, I still have not figured out how to test this in JMP. The specific test I have seen elsewhere is the Box Tidwell test. Is there a way to get this test on JMP? Failing that, is there another way to test linearity of a logistic regression model? Thanks! ... View more

I'd like to suggest the ability to have all of the drop down options for cell/summary statistic labeling to be shown in graph builder.  Currently you can only have one on at a time.  I usually want to have a summary statistic and the count of at the same time and the caption box options does not always work as needed  (either by format or the way the statistic compiles).   So for example on a mosaic plot I could have label by value, %, and count all active on the chart. For bar charts, I'd like to have any number of the summary statistics available to show on the chart.  This would reflect the way the caption box now works in JMP17.   Thanks for considering this request.   Steve ...

☐ cool new feature ☑ could help many users! ☑ removes a „bug“ ☐ nice to have ☐ nobody needs it   Is there a column colname in my data table? This is one of the questions which are asked most often in the community: https://community.jmp.com/t5/Discussions/Check-column-name-if-existing/m-p/312011/highlight/true#M56... https://community.jmp.com/t5/Discussions/How-to-check-if-list-of-columns-exist-and-report-those-that... https://community.jmp.com/t5/Discussions/If-column-exists/td-p/348 https://community.jmp.com/t5/Discussions/how-to-creat-new-column-if-same-name-column-does-not-exist/... https://community.jmp.com/t5/Discussions/Create-a-new-Row-column-only-if-it-does-not-exist/td-p/3091... https://community.jmp.com/t5/Discussions/Determining-if-a-column-exists/m-p/6268#M6267 https://community.jmp.com/t5/Discussions/Validate-column-name-exists-before-graphing/m-p/5088#M5087   So, it seems that it's not straightforward enough, how it is implemented at the moment.   But it is even more interesting - and bears a lot of dangers. A user who doesn't know about the stumbling blocks associated with JSL naming conventions, most probably just writes Contains( dt << Get Column Names(String), "age" ) into his code. Quite easy ... but extremely dangerous - see: https://community.jmp.com/t5/Discussions/check-if-column-exists/m-p/572468 What looks like strange discussions of some jsl scripting nerds shows that the above statement, sure, will work for many cases, but: will fail once spaces, capital letters, special character are in the column names.   To prevent users from using such dangerous code, it's the best to "instutionalize" - i.e. provide the users an easy solution which accounts automatically for all pitfalls.   My wish: it should be possible to ask a data table:   dt << contains column("colname")     This function can account for all pitfalls: - compare with exact match - or check match for  as name("colname"), accounting for spaces - distinguish or don't distinguish lower/capital letters - handle special characters   The benefit: - less questions in the community - automatically better code. - less frustration.   more wishes submitted by   ...

Hello,   I've encountered significant performance issues with large datasets and complex analysis in JMP and I'd like to suggest the following:   1. Can JMP be enhanced to run on GPUs and/or workstations (Windows or Linux) with multi-threading? 2. When a project is saved, the analyses are stored as scripts, which are rerun each time the project is reopened. With large datasets and complex analyses, this can take considerable amounts of time (hours). I have a number of saved projects that I doubt I can ever realistically open again. Is there a way to speeden this up? For example, can the user be given the option to save the project in a different mode where the reports are stored "live" (i.e., can be modified) but without having to regenerate them each time the project is re-opened? This may perhaps increase the file size on disk but in this day and age, that's not as significant of a concern.   Thanks and regards Mehul Shroff ... View more

Hello,   I'd like to request the following enhancements to the aforementioned row commands.   1. Allow the user to set the color and symbol based on different columns in the same dialog. Currently, it requires the process to be repeated, once for each. 2. Is it possible to add a third option, e.g., based on size / highlight, etc.? 3. For some analysis reports (e.g., Variability Gauge), the order in which the row legend is displayed is not in the order in which the selection was done. This differs from the beahavior in other analysis platforms. Can this be made consistent to other platforms?   Thanks and regards Mehul Shroff ... View more

Hello,   In Table Join (and other associated platforms, as applicable), it would be helpful to provide a check box to automatically include the matched columns in the output table. This way, they don't have to be selected again for the set of columns that are to be included in the output table.   Thanks and regards Mehul Shroff ... View more

Hello,   When working in Projects, it would be helpful to highlight the data table or analysis report that's currently open in the workspace. Similarly - while it is possible to get to a particular table or report by double-clicking (in Windows) the file in the workspace, the highlighting isn't great and it might help to show that file in bold or with a slightly stronger highlight color.   Thanks and regards Mehul Shroff ...

JMP's equivalence test, subcategory of nonlinear fitting with sigmoid curves - logistic curves - logistic 4p using log transformed concentration data, is a fantastic tool for comparison two drugs in bioassay. Result contains four parameters (growth rate, Inflection point, lower asymptote, and upper asymptote).   In some cases, a higher variability with the lower asymptote ratio can be observed due to the large impact of small variations in the ratios of reference and test sample. To overcome this potential drawback, Yang et al. suggest not considering the lower asymptote alone, but together with the upper asymptote as the ratio of upper to lower asymptote (e.g. New Variable=(upper asymptote - Lower asymptote)ref / (upper asymptote - lower asymptote)test).   For detailed information, please see the article, Comment and Completion: Implementation of Parallelism Testing for Four-Parameter Logistic Model in Bioassays, DOI:10.5731/pdajpst.2015.01060   They suggested two new parameters. First one is the range from lower to upper asymptote and second is the slope (or growth factor) at inflection point. I think their idea is quite reasonable and hopefully I could apply their concept in JMP.   Thank you.   ... View more

When we export to PDFs, the dialog shows how many pages it will take. In a lot of applications, I scale down (after setting header and other options) to get to one page. Since JMP already has an estimate of the number of pages, it should be possible for it to automatically tune the scaling so that it is the maximal size that only produces a single page. ...

The new response screener interface is much improved for JMP 17, great job JMP team.  I was hoping that for the next dot release you could add in the lower and upper 90% CI's in the equivalence testing out put table as well as the "save means differences" table.  It would also be nice to see the CI's on the this plot   Thanks for considering this request.   Steve   ...
