Embedding an interactive JMP graph in a C# application

Question

I am using JMP 11. Using the Automation Reference document and the JMPStarter C# sample application, I was able to get a simple C# application working.

I am now looking to embed a JMP graph into an existing C# form. All the examples I have seen, open a new JMP window with the JMP report file.

Is there a way to launch the JMP report (or just a graph or journal) within a C# form or a user-control, instead of as a separate JMP window?

I have attached an image that describes what I am trying to do.

I haven't explored the HTML5 reports much, but I was planning on using the web browser control in my form to access the interactive HTML report.

Essentially, I am looking for communicating back to my form, the data points that were selected in the plot. This is why I was asking about somehow extracting the selected points from the HTML report. Would this be possible with the HTML5?

I see, so even though it has the data embedded in the HTML file itself, the state of each data point is stored in-memory.

So the report would need to be modified to write out the selected data points, each time their state changes. I have no expertise with this though, so this will not work.

Have you considered embedding a web browser control into your UI / form?  You could then just point the control to the html5 output.  If it was a modern control, you might be able to still have live graphics.
