Bivariate Histogram

Question

Can JMP create a bivariate histogram of 2 data columns from a data set? I am thinking of something that creates graphs similar to those one can make in Matlab using the "hist3" command?

(see bottom figure in this link as an example of what I'm visualizing)

I don't necessarily need the fancy aspect viewpoint like shown in the figures from the Mathworks website. Having a top view with "counts" represented with color scale for the vertical dimension would be great.

Thanks

Concerning your addon question:

If you go to the pulldown menu

Tables==>Subset

The platform comes up with the option defaulted to subset only the selected rows

Phil,

Those are great suggestions, and I like the visuals. Thank you very much!

Thanks Ron. That is exactly what I was looking for!

An add-on question here...once I select a bin(s) from the heat map I see that the corresponding rows are selected within the originating data table as expected. Is there a way, separate from the obvious copy/paste approach, to a have only the selected data (both columns) populate a new data table?
