Hello, Can the features to make report outputs into data tables (single or combined) be enhanced to create a single, merged data table (with appropriate formatting) for all blocks in the report? Currently, each unique block has to be separately ported to a data table and subsequent table processing is needed to combine them.   Regards Mehul Shroff ... View more

Hello,   The Fit Y by X Bivariate (and by extension, Fit Model) platform currently does not have the ability to send the fit equation (aka, prediction expression in Fit Model) to a data table. IOW, when right-clicking on the equation, the menu does not have commands for Make Data Table or Make Combined Data Table, which are available for the other blocks.   It would be helpful to add this feature to be able to summarize the equations into a table. When several similar reports are generated (e.g., with the use of By variables or when there are multiple X or Y variables), it's not feasible to copy/paste or manually type them into a spreadsheet.   Regards Mehul Shroff ...

Hello,   I would like to request that the Find and Replace functionality be enhanced to allow users to make the changes across multiple open data tables or scripts. These can be stand-alone files or files within a project.   Regards Mehul Shroff ... View more

Hello,   The Fit Group platform has an option for Redo Analysis but not for Relaunch Analysis. Can the latter be added as well?   (Images below added courtesy of JMP-TS using Big Class.jmp available in the JMP Sample Data Directory):      Regards Mehul Shroff   cc: @PatrickGiuliano ... View more

☐ cool new feature ☐ could help many users! ☑ removes a „bug“ ☐ nice to have ☐ nobody needs it   At the moment, a data table object is removed from Application Builder as soon as the user closes the corresponding data table. This destroys all links to the data table (plots, column list boxes, data filters ...), leading to a non-functional Application. If the user doesn't notice the problem and saves the Application, the file gets useless:      Workaround for users who already lost an application: Don't use Application Builder. Apply extreme care, when an application is opened in edit mode: First save and close the application, then close the data table if the user detects that "it happened again" before he closes the application, he can recover/keep the structure by adding a new data table before saving :)   My wish:  Please protect the user from this problem. Options: If a user closes a data table and the data table is used in an application, please display a warning message asking the user if he really wants to close the data table - as this will destroy the application. Keep the structure in the application as it is (even with closed data table) if the user wants to continue editing the application, Jmp can ask the user if it's OK to open the data table again.     https://community.jmp.com/t5/Discussions/Collection-of-quot-funny-quot-JSL-newbie-questions/m-p/580077/highlight/true#M78727   ...

As a code editor JMP's Script Editor is lacking quite a many features, one of them are some fairly basic shortcuts which make writing scripts much faster (and easier when you get used to them) and the shortcuts should mostly work without using mouse. Below are just few of the suggestions that come quickly to my mind (the shortcuts for all of these should be easy for user to configure): Open search bar for Scripting Index This should open similar search window as Quick Open does Open scripting index for current function, this has already been suggested but closed as delivered, BUT this new shortcut requires usage of mouse. Cut Line Copy Line Move Line up/down Copy line up/down Auto-complete variable names (might be already suggested) Either in similar manner as valid commands works currently (Ctrl+Space) Or offer suggestions and user can fill them by pressing Enter This could be expanded to functions in a similar manner as SAS in which you can control how it works through preferences These kinda already exist but have been split into two different shortcuts instead of toggle. I have no idea though how to use these with my keyboard or how to set them in JMP Menu Editor as I don't know the Built-in command for these and they aren't visible (do I have to build them by using Main Menu("")?) Toggle line comment Toggle block comment More possible shortcuts can be found for example from Visual Studio Codes keyboard shortcut listing ... View more

Hello, My students were in the middle of their Lab exam, conducting a Block ANOVA. A problem arose when they came to test for unequal variance, they were unable to do so, the option was no longer showing! This test was showing a few weeks earlier. I then learnt from technical support that this option was recently removed from JMP 16.  It is hard for us teachers when things are changed without our knowledge, as we build the labs with step by step instructions, and do not know when steps have been changed or removed. This is especially difficult in online classes.   I suggest/wish that JMP provide an internal mechanism to prioritize certain deprecation or feature removals for external communication to academic customers. Thank you       ... View more

In previous versions of JMP, the unequal variances test option was enabled when using ANOVA with a block effect. This has been removed for JMP 16. Can it please be re-added? ... View more

Hello,   In JMP 16, the options for the color scheme and reverse colors for Contour Plots were moved from the hot-key menu to a different menu that is accessed by right-clicking (in Windows) on the color legend. This is problematic because selections of / changes to these options can no longer be broadcast across multiple contour plots and each one needs to be handled individually. Can these options be moved back to the hot-key menu? If not, can functionality be added to the current menu to enable the use of broadcast mode?   This was also reported to Tech Support in June 2021.     ... View more

Currently user can select Lightness Range but not the range to use from Color Theme.   For example I would like to have common theme for multiple visualizations in same report. Some of my graphs I want to use diverging colors so I can make the ends more visible   and for other variables I'm only interested in either high or low end (and the gradient towards those ends).   Currently I can do this, but I don't need the middle point grey and I'm not really interested in the green portion either:   So I would like to be able to select range, which would allow me to easily use colors like this: ...

I cannot use JSL Debugger as (I think) it has some issue with my VPN (or my VPN has issue with it). When I accidentally run debugger it will completely freeze my JMP for few minutes. I would like to have an option to completely disable JLS debugger, make it response faster with an error or maybe we could figure out why it freezes and won't work.  First error message I receive is: "A time-out encountered while attempting to connect to the JSL Debugger GUI." ...

JMP offers the "Scheffe Cubic" Model as standard model for design and analysis of Mixtures. It is known from literature the these model tends to overfit the data. The "Reduced Scheffe Cubic" or "Special Scheffe Cubic" ofte is the better choice. It would very useful to have the Reduced Scheffe Cubic model as standard choice in the user dialogues dealing with mixtrure problems.   See: https://bookdown.org/gerhard_krennrich/doe_and_optimization/ See https://community.jmp.com/t5/Discovery-Summit-2015/Efficient-Mixture-Process-Experiments-Using-Nonlinear-Models/ta-p/22734?attachment-id=2494     ...

☐ cool new feature ☑ could help many users! ☐ removes a „bug“ ☐ nice to have ☐ nobody needs it   #myTop10_2022     There is a set of posts with questions how to restrict the Col ... aggregation functions to a specific subset. Compute Column Mean while restricting observations used  JMP10: Col Max() and Col Min() functions returned the data from excluded row  Col Functions and Row States  How do I use the Col Maximum Formula with a "where" condition  Exclude data in formula    Application cases: excluded rows from the aggregation: Col Max(if(not(excluded()), :weight,.),: sex) or even shorter (if one doesn't need values in the excluded rows); Col Max(:weight, :sex, :excluded()) Benchmark some data with a reference data set (country A in this post)  :data / Col Maximum(if(:country="A", :data,.))   calculate relative performance over time (divide all values at time t>=t0  by values at t=t0) (here the Col Mean is actually to get the value for :time=0 to the other rows.:) : data / Col Mean(if(:time=0, :data, 0) :batch, :sampleID)   As one can see in the examples above, the easy solution is an If statement inside the Col xyz aggreagtion:   col Mean( if(:sex=="M", :weight,.), :age); col Mean( if(not(excluded()), :weight,.), :age)     The problem: The approach is EXTREMELY slow - if the subset if-condition contains a  string comparison: How-do-I-use-the-Col-Maximum-Formula-with-a-where/M78599 Then the time scales quadratically with the number of rows and even for small data sets with just a few 1000 entries the calculation takes seconds. For data sets with some million entries it would take months (!!!) - but will be stopped by a timeout and an error message pops up. Not nice!   My wish:  fix the bug   Even better: Provide an additonal where option for Col xyz aggreagtions which fixes the timing problem automatically: first restricts the data set, then applys the aggregation (--> much faster, even if the cool "col..." speedup has a  bug) which  make subset definitions easier, instead of (*), you just need:   col Mean(:weight, :age, where(:sex=="M")) col Mean(:weight, :age, where(not(excluded())))     timing examples, copied from here corrected version - in a prev. version the screenshot showed [ms] instead of [s]   more wishes submitted by   ...

1) There is a need to add more curves to the Fit Curve menu and offer the same functionality to the Non-Linear Fit platform curves, especially around supplementary factors and DOE analysis. Maybe these platforms can be merged.  2) I can see some advantages to having in the drop-down Models option in FDE, the Fit Curves model options under Wavelets. This might encourage people to think more about actual theoretical models and the science behind them, instead of using the easy back-box models. ... View more

Hello, I would like to suggest that you develop an import option for reading iba files. https://www.iba-ag.com/fr/ These files are widely used in my field of activity (industrial production and energy, metallurgy, steel industry, ...). Today, I use an intermediate step by exporting iba dat files to txt files (or by extracting data from iba dat files using dll (iba provided) and home-made C++ software) and then importing them into JMP. My wish is to be able to import iba dat files directly (with subsampling options, signal selection,...) and to use a JSL script to import multiple files or to import dynamically files being recorded (for example to update data visualization dashboards). I am available for any further questions or clarifications and ready to be an early adopter of this feature. Thank you. S.Gouttebroze ... View more

Hello,   When using Local Data Filter for a set of plots (e.g., if generated using By variables), I can invoke Local Data Filters for each plot in broadcast mode. However, there does not appear to be the ability to select the filter settings for each plot (if the settings are the same) in broadcast mode and therefore, each plot has to have its settings done individually. Can a broadcast feature be added for Local Data Filters?   I've been given to understand that there is a way to copy / paste the filter settings from one plot to others, but for the sake of consistency across platforms, enabling a broadcast feature would be extremely helpful.   Regards Mehul Shroff   cc: @PatrickGiuliano ...
