How to show the actual range in the level values in Graph Builder?Hi,
In the attached plot, the property of column "ChannelNumber" is Numeric/Continuous. I found it confusing in the grouped values at the top. "0-4" actually includes 0-3, as shown at the bottom; "4-8" actualy includes 4-7. It seems the range at the top always has overlapping values between adjacent levels. What can I do to make this overlap go away (i.e. I want it to show "0-3", "4-7","8-11" at the top)? Thank you very much...

增加一个新的列，将你原先的信道归纳到这3个分类里。（0~3，4~7，8~11）
用新增的列作为X group即可实现你的需求。
Re: How to show the actual range in the level values in Graph Builder?Thank you Frank. I wonder if there is a way other than adding a new column...
Re: How to show the actual range in the level values in Graph Builder?If you have JMP16, you could create Custom Range:
Or in this case it might be enough if you just change the Bin Label Style from Cutpoints red triangle in same Custom Levels menu.
Default:
Using Low to high - 1
Re: How to show the actual range in the level values in Graph Builder?Thanks, but I am using JMP14. There is no "Custom Levels" option. The closest I can get it to add a Binning column:
Any other ideas please?
Re: How to show the actual range in the level values in Graph Builder?Just wanted to point out that if the value is continuous, then what happens if you have a value of 3.9? What about 3.999999? The default is that the intervals are left inclusive. Mathematically it would be written as [0,4), [4,8), etc..
It sounds like you might want to consider the data as ordinal if the fractions are not possible.
Re: How to show the actual range in the level values in Graph Builder?Thanks, Dan. I tried that too. This is what I got after setting it to ordinal:
Re: How to show the actual range in the level values in Graph Builder?Unfortunately, I don't have JMP 14 to hand to check - But if you right click on 'ChannelNumber' in the Graph Builder display immediately above, do you see some options that allow you to control the number of levels displayed?
Re: How to show the actual range in the level values in Graph Builder?I do have version 14. If you right-click on the channel number, select Number of Levels. From your first example, that would be 12 levels. Not sure why yours defaulted to 3 levels as mine defaulted to all levels.
I made a simple example, and it looks like this (as a scatterplot rather than boxplot).
Re: How to show the actual range in the level values in Graph Builder?Thanks Dan. I was trying to make the ChannelNumber into 3 equal groups, as in 0-3, 4-7, 8-11. Number of Levels to display was set to 3. My original question was how to make it show "0-3","4-7","8-11" at the top, instead of "0-4","4-8","8-11", without adding another column.
Re: How to show the actual range in the level values in Graph Builder?What a wonderful feature: custom labels !
I tried to reproduce the steps in the screenshots with Jmp 17.1.0 - but once I change something in the binning scheme or the Bin Label Style, the displayed labels switch to "single number only" - independent of the Bin Label Style settings.
This is how it looks after pressing "OK" and opening the menu again:
Re: How to show the actual range in the level values in Graph Builder?Jmp support confirmed that this is a known bug in Jmp 17.1 - th same if you try to use custom labels:
According to the settings on the left, it should be "low" and "high" but in the plot actually it is "64" and "100":
Re: How to show the actual range in the level values in Graph Builder?Workaround at the moment:
"save" the user define binning as a Transform Column and use that column.
the disadvantage: the user loses the ability to adjust the settings via Right Click/ Custom Labels ...
Re: How to show the actual range in the level values in Graph Builder?Seems to be fixed in Jmp 17.2
thanks
