This does not work

Re: Change (Increase/Decrease) Font size for Value Labels in Graph Builder chartsWell let's hope I get JMP 15 some time soon!Re: Change (Increase/Decrease) Font size for Value Labels in Graph Builder charts

In JMP 15, there is a new font preference for Graph Labels which only affects labels on data elements within the graph.

Some font size can't be changed... ever...

With cell labels, the font size never changes, even if you change everything in the preferences.

With grouping variables, it only chanegs when you change the general "text" option in the preferences, however this changes everything in the software and if you've ever tried doing this, it messes everything up.

You can always double click on an axis within a graph to open the axis editor to change font and font size. This would be in an ad hoc fashion. If you routinely want to edit specific graphs or axes the same way, then creating a script and saving it as an add-in could help.

 

Check out the scripting guide in Help>Books>Scripting Guide for some guidance.

Is this the only way to change a label on a graph?  Because it changes the text size for everything.  We can't just change the labels on that particular graph?

Hi,

 

This is a global setting that can be found in the Preferences menu under Fonts.  Change the Text font to change the Value Label font.

Interesting, Labels of Bar graphs have a command to adjust the font size, but point graph don't?
Graph builder bar chart data label control  -> interesting as well for other plot types?

Now it's 2025 - and we are working with JMP19 ...
Many new features, great improvments, ...

and a nostalgic feeling when you have to adjust the font settings via the preferences.
