How to Hide Outline Box of Graph Builder

I would like to Hide the outline box that surrounds a graph builder.

 

I tried making it a report and deleting the Outline Box like 
ybuild = Graph Builder();
yrep = ybuild << report;
yrep[ OutlineBox(1) ] << Delete;
The entire report just disappears.

Wow, nice!
Thanks, @XanGregg for the info.

Re: How to Hide Outline Box of Graph Builder

Even when the outline is hidden, there is a tiny hotspot for the red triangle menu in the upper left. You will see the cursor change to a pointing hand icon when you're over it.

Re: How to Hide Outline Box of Graph Builder

If I want to access the red triangle menu after hiding the OutlineBox, e.g. to access the red triangle menu

... is 

report(gb)[ OutlineBox(1) ] << Set Title("show");

the only way?

 

I hope there is an alternative solution

 

- which can be used in a Dashboard, hopefully with a mouse click?
edit: ah in Dashboards it's easy: the OutlineBox stays.

edit again:
not always...
The OutlineBox can be removed in a Dashboard via:

 

--> left part of the Dashboard (right part for comparison)
I placed the mouse at the magical Red-Triangle memorial position which Xan describes in the following post.

 

Re: How to Hide Outline Box of Graph Builder

Similar to Xan's solution, in the graph-builder JSL you could do this:

dt = open("$sample_data\Big Class.jmp");

Graph Builder(
 Size( 526, 451 ),
 Show Control Panel( 0 ),
 Variables( X( :weight ), Y( :height ) ),
 Elements( Points( X, Y, Legend( 16 ) ), Line( X, Y, Legend( 18 ) ) ),
 SendToReport(
  Dispatch( {}, "Graph Builder",
   OutlineBox, {Set Title( "" )}
  )
 )
);

Re: How to Hide Outline Box of Graph Builder

Wow....another thing I knew at one time that I lost somewhere along the way.  

Great post.....

Re: How to Hide Outline Box of Graph Builder

Setting the outline title to empty will make it hide the top part.

 

ybuild = Graph Builder( ... );
yrep = ybuild << report;
yrep[ OutlineBox(1) ] << Set Title("");

Re: How to Hide Outline Box of Graph Builder

1. You need to read the Scripting Guide so that you understand how the Display Tree Structures work, which will allow you to interpret what the sample code I provided is doing.

2.  Below is a modification to the code that you provided.  In your example, what should have happened, is that a separate window should have appeared with the framebox from the Graph Builder in it, sans the outline box.  The new code places that frame box into the new window that you are creating.

Y_Graph = Expr(
//For(k=1,k<=N Items(Act),k++,(
 k = 7;
 ybuild = Yield_Tab << Graph Builder(
  Size( 639, 378 ),
  Show Control Panel( 0 ),
  Show Footer( 0 ),
  Lock Scales( 1 ),
  Variables(
   X( :Month ),
   X( :WW ),
   Y( Column( Act[k] ) ),
   Y( Column( Act[k] || " Weekly Target" ), Position( 1 ) ),
   Y( Column( Act[k] || " Month Target" ), Position( 1 ) )
  ),

Re: How to Hide Outline Box of Graph Builder

This script includes a lot of details that get in the way of testing a solution. I suggest you test your scheme to remove the outline box to work first with a simple example, then apply it to the real chart.

Re: How to Hide Outline Box of Graph Builder

Just a brief follow up to Jim's reply...

It isn't obvious when you look at a JMP window that the objects making up the window are nested. This branching structure leads to the name display tree. You can see the structure by right-clicking on the gray triangle to the left of the outline box and select Edit > Show Display Tree. You can delete any display box but it also removes any display boxes within.

Besides journaling, you can clone a display box (and its contents) and then include them in another window. Note that the cloning generally loses the interactivity of the original object, like journaling, but this way is another alternative to consider for your purpose.

Hi Jim, thanks for your timely reply.. I'm trying it and I'm not seeing any kind of change.

Re: How to Hide Outline Box of Graph Builder

The graphic from the Graph Builder is nested underneath the outline box, therefore, if you delete the outline box, it will delete the graph.  Therefore, you need to move the graphic.  Below is a simple example of how to do that

Names Default To Here( 1 );
dt = Open( "$SAMPLE_DATA\big class.jmp" );
gb = Graph Builder(
 Size( 519, 448 ),
 Show Control Panel( 0 ),
 Variables( X( :age ), Y( :sex ) ),
 Elements( Points( X, Y, Legend( 5 ) ) )
);
Report( gb )[FrameBox( 1 )] << journal;

@John_Sall  @~ 9min:

If you Click on that little red triangle, you get a menu of commands, okay?
One of the secrets is you can right Click anywhere else in that report and get that same menu

---

really! I was excited - no need to find the magical Red-Triangle memorial position ?
but as it seems, the alternative option to right Click anywhere else is just available as long as the red triangle is available ...
