Add ref line and column switcher

Hi all,

 

I have two questions:

 

1) when I switch column with column switcher, I can't add ref line anymore. for example

 

Names Default To Here( 1 );
dt = Open( "$SAMPLE_DATA/Big Class.jmp" );
obj = dt << Bivariate( Y( :height ), X( :weight ) );

ColumnSwitcherObject = obj << Column Switcher( :height, {:name, :age, :sex, :height} );


gbReport = obj << report;<BR /><BR />axisbox = gbReport[axis box( 1)];

now when I run the next line

 

 

axisbox << Add Ref Line(60, "Dotted", yellow, "TR", 2 );

It's working.

 

 

 

But if run this two lines 

ColumnSwitcherObject << set current("age"); axisbox << Add Ref Line(14, "Dotted", yellow, "TR", 2 );

</CODE></P><P>It giving me this error</P><P>&nbsp;</P><PRE><CODE class="language-jsl">deleted object reference: axisbox << Add Ref Line(14, "Dotted", yellow, "TR", 2) in access or evaluation of 'Send' , axisbox << /*###*/Add Ref Line( 14, "Dotted", yellow, "TR", 2 ) /*###*/ In the following script, error marked by /*###*/ axisbox << /*###*/Add Ref Line( 14, "Dotted", yellow, "TR", 2 ) /*###*/

 

 

2) Is there a way to execute a script when switching columns in column switcher? Something like "makerowstatehandler" when we use local data filter?

 

Thanks.

 

Re: Add ref line and column switcher

The column switcher has the habit to drop its reference when a column is swapped out.  By either embedding the reference line into the code

Bivariate(
 Y( :height ),
 X( :weight ),
 SendToReport(
  Dispatch(
   {},
   "2",
   ScaleBox,
   {Add Ref Line( 62.9375, "Dashed", "Yellow", "TR", 1 )}
  )
 )
);

or adding the code by using

<

I believe you can get around the issue

Thanks, 

 

But it's showing me this error 

 

axisbox << Add Ref Line( 14, "Dotted", yellow, "TR", 2 );

and not displaying the line

Re: Add ref line and column switcher

For #1, you need to re-run the line that sets the AxisBox variable first. This is because the Column Switcher in JMP re-generates the report when the column changes, so the old references to the report and axis box are no longer valid.

// Always needs to happen in this order
gbReport = obj << report;
axisbox = gbReport[axis box( 1 )];
axisbox << Add Ref Line(14, "Dotted", yellow, "TR", 2 );

For #2, I do not believe there is an equivalent handler for Column Switcher like there is for the Data Filter. This might be a good idea for the JMP Wish List.
