Variability Charts - rotating text in the x-axis grouping?<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=UTF-8" />

For the variability chart graphic, the x-axis groupings have previously been capable of 90 degree rotation to make the text vertical.  I have tried scripting it in and just right clicking the box and checking rotate text.  The text now just shifts slightly instead of rotating.  My scripts I have been using for a couple years no longer do this and I can't even get it to rotate when creating a test chart from a test data table from scratch. 

I was running 9.0.2 and after trying all of the above and searching here I noticed 9.0.3 was out so updated but that didn't seem to fix it.

I have attached the test data table and saved script for the chart to the table.  Any ideas on how to get this text rotated?  thanks...

Variability Charts - rotating text in the x-axis grouping?

Have you changed any fonts in the preferences or any other that options may interfere? Try "reset to default". Old or odd Java VM installed? Just wild-guessing here.

Hopefully a reinstall of JMP would fix it, as a last resort.

Variability Charts - rotating text in the x-axis grouping?

So it turns out that a colleague that is running same version/computer/etc... as me can rotate the text as well.  He can even journal a file and show it as rotated, email me that file, and it shows un-rotated.

This seems to be a problem with how the report is displayed for me only - any ideas are appreciated...

Variability Charts - rotating text in the x-axis grouping?

Thanks for checking MS,

Exactly what I am trying to do but those same methods aren't rotating the text for me - they just shift the text slightly. They used to rotate the text just fine.   Didn't mention it in the original post but the Y-axis label has the same issue - displayed horizontal and not vertical like your image above.

Maybe bug in windows version or conflict with something I am running (not sure what that would be), kinda grasping at straws now....

Re: Variability Charts - rotating text in the x-axis grouping?

I tried rotating the group labels in tha var chart that your attached file produced. It worked fine. Both manually and by the jsl code below. I am using JMP 9.03 for Mac. I include a picture so you can tell if I have understood the problem correctly.

vc = Variability Chart(

          Y( :Y data ),

          X( :X Group 1, :X Group 2 ),

          Analysis Type( Name( "Choose best analysis (EMS REML Bayesian)" ) ),

          Process Variation( 0 ),

          Std Dev Chart( 0 )

);

Report( vc )[nomaxisbox( 1 )] << rotated tick labels( 1 );
