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.

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.
