JMP 11 Scripting Guide

Adding Scripts to Graphs

If you context-click (right-mouse-button) on the graphics frame, you can enter or paste JSL commands. The script usually contains drawing commands that run in the context of the graphics frame. For example:

1. Open the Big Class.jmp data table.

2. Select Analyze > Fit Y by X.

3. Choose Height for X and Weight for Y, and click OK.

4. Right-click inside the graph.

5. Select Customize from the context menu.

6. Click the plus button to add a new graphics script.

7. Type this text and click OK.

text({55,160},"Hello World");

Now the graph has a text element at the graph’s x-coordinate 55 and y-coordinate 160.
