What inspired this wish list request?
Unlike plots and reports, column formulas don't use the information which rows are excluded - by default.
If the user doesn't pay attention, this leads to erroneous, Max, Min Rank etc. values.
Workaround:
The user has to specify explicitly that excluded rows have to be excluded form the analysis.
Therefore some kind of Excluded() has to be added to the formulas as soon as rows are excluded.
What is the improvement you would like to see?
- Please provide a shortcut button to add excluded()to the formula,
- The button could be placed between the columns list and the constants/variables menu.
- Please also add a button to add selected()
- Any additional similar row states that should be easily accessible?
Why is this idea important?
a) With the new buttons, a user can quickly add excluded() and selected() - expressions which are needed so often.
b) A new Jmp user doesn't expect that such expressions have to be added to the formula.
-> The availability of the buttons will trigger people to think, dig deeper and find out.
