change size axis increments based on timeI am plotting data over time using an uneven spread of intervals (1 week, 2 weeks, 1 month, 6 months, etc). I would like to make it so the increments on the x axis are sized proportionally to the amount of time; 0-1 weeks, 1-2 weeks being the smallest and 6-9 months, 9-12 months being the largest.

I would recommend using the Recode function based on your original X values, then change the data type to Numerical and modelling as Continuous.

Re: change size axis increments based on timeHi Thierry,
As a new JMP user I don't have the full knowledge about the recode feature. I have attempted recoding the column to something such where 1 week=0.25 months, 2=0.5 months and then months as whole numbers. Then once i change the modeling type to continuous and try graphing, the 2 fractional x values appear after 12 months so it reads 1-12, 0.25, 0.5. Maybe this isn't what you suggested, but could you give me a little more direction on the recode?
Thanks
Re: change size axis increments based on timeHi,
That's odd.
Here are a couple of screen captures to show you the steps:
How the recode dialog should look like before any changes:
Recode dialog with new values updated
Finally, in the Column Info window, how the Data type and Modeling type should look like:
Let me know if that does not work either.
