Using JSL to Display Launch Window for Control Chart Platforms

hlrauch

The JMP Scripting Guide shows how to display the launch window for a platform, so a user can select columns and other options (V12 Scripting Guide, p. 387). The guide's example displays the Distribution launch window:

Distribution(Weight({}));

This works well in most cases. However I can't figure out how to display the launch windows for the control chart platforms. I can run the following:

Control Chart();

but this (and some variations of this code) always opens the X-Bar Control Chart launcher. I can't display the launch windows for run charts, IR (individual measurement & moving range) charts, or any of the other control charts. The following two attempts, for example, produce errors.

Control Chart(

   Sample Size( 1 ), KSigma( 3 ),

   Chart Col( {}, Run Chart )

);

Control Chart(

    Sample Size( 1 ), KSigma( 3 ),

  Chart Col( {} ))

);

I may have a work-around method, but I would rather do this using the documented techniques. Any suggestions for displaying the launch windows for these other control charts?

Thanks!

Hihlrauch​​,

Try using the Main Menu() command. This allows you to call any of the items that appear in the JMP Menus, directly from JSL. For example:

Main Menu("IR") --> displays the Control Chart Individual Measurement launch window

Main Menu("Run Chart")--> displays the Run Chart launch window

and so on....

hope this helps!
