How can I create a variability menu using a current data table?

Andyon98

I am looking to create a variability plot using a current data table. I would also like to have that data table beside the interactive plot so I can update the plot based on what I select. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

There seems to be confusion as to what exactly you are asking for. I'm not sure what you mean by creating a "variability menu", but below I have created a variability chart and then used JMP's dashboard functionality to create a combined window containing the chart and the data table. Is this the sort of thing you are trying to do?

If you, you can combine the chart and data table by selecting the windows using the checkboxes on the bottom right, then from the bottom right black triangle select 'combine windows'.

(the option for the variability chart is under analyze>quality & process>variability / attribute gauge chart)

or in code:

dt = open("$SAMPLE_DATA/Variability Data/2 factors crossed.jmp");

NewWindow("MY Window",
	HListBox(
		dt << Variability Chart(
			Y( :Measurement ),
			X( :Operator, :part# ),
			Standard( :Standard ),
			Automatic Recalc( 1 )
		),
		dg = dt << New Data Box()
	)
);
dg << close side panels ( 1 );

I'm not sure what you mean by 'variability plot'...but the good old fashioned Distribution platform has a multitude of data visualization options where one can explore questions like:

1. Where's the middle?

2. How spread out is the data?

3. What does the shape of the distribution look like?

4. Is there anything odd/suspicious/out of the ordinary/unexpected?

Once you have a core plot(s) one option for selecting parts of the data for interactive playing around is to invoke a local data filter and explore with that.

There are videos that are quit nice and may help you to understand how a plot can be made in JMP to visualize data, find more in "Mastering JMP" section of this website. So beneath Distribution platform suggested by P_Bartell the Graph Builder may be a more general tool.

Hi Dave, I should have been more specific. What you sent is very similar to what I am trying to achieve, thank you.

David_Burnham

Out of interest, were you trying to do it interactively, or through code?

How can I select a column on the data tables filter and update that particular column to the Y axis on the plot?

Use Column Switcher for that

Through code
