keyboard shortcut to stop all formula evaluations

☐ cool new feature
☑ could help many users!

☑ removes a „bug“

☐ nice to have

☐ nobody needs it

 

 

To stop all formula evaluations, the user can click on "Suppress Formula Eval" in the table red triangle menu:
https://community.jmp.com/t5/Discussions/stop-all-evaluations/m-p/529859/highlight/true#M75318

 

But sometimes, jmp is so busy to run the evaluations (stuck in a loop?) that it's almost impossible to get to the menu.

 

my wish: a keyboard shortcut to stop all current formula evaluations.

--> the user can press it continuously till jmp gets the info end stops the evaluation
(like pressing Esc continuously if a JSL code is stuck - after some while, JMP detects it and stops the code)

 

btw: there is a command rerun Formulas in the same red triangle menu.

But this button just works if "Suppress Formula Eval" is not activated for the table.

my wish: 

rerun Formulas should rerun the formulas every time the user clicks on rerun Formulas - even if "Suppress Formula Eval" is activated.

Kill process without killing JMP 

Avoiding complete shutdown while not responding 

with the idea to have a general option stop Jmp from being stuck.

 

on the other hand, there are some functions with known speed issues:
