Hey,

I tried to use the Cell Height() in JMP 13, but still it is not working.

Can you please send me an example of how to use it ?

 

Thanks

The Cell Height() setting for JSL was first implemented in JMP 12, therefore, you can use JSL to set it.

You will need to upgrade to get the cell height capability

I am using JMP11 with windows , and does not success to change the hight of the cell.

Is there a JSL code to change the cell height ?

Perhaps you could put the escape seequence '\!N" in your text?

dt = New Table( "Double Height",
    Add Rows( 1 ),
    New Column( "Column 1", Character, Nominal)
   );

Column(dt, "Column 1")[1] = "The quick\!Nbrown fox";

JMP does not have such an option.  The row height can be changed, which will allow long strings to wrap within a cell, however, when you change one rows height, all rows will be changed to the same height.
