Value Colors - same color for a block of values?

When defining colors via value colors, is there an easy way to define the same color for a block of (e.g. 100) adjacent values?

I can select the block via Shift Click, but how to apply the color.

 

Selecting the respective rows and changing the color manually is no option because I want the rule to be applied dynamically after data changes.

Hi,

Considering your advanced level in this Discussion forum, I am unsure if this suggestion will help.

 

Have you considered creating a grouping formula (e.g., Quantiles) to which you could assign colors? 

 

If(
 :X <= Col Quantile( :X, 0.25 ), 1,
 Col Quantile( :X, 0.25 ) < :X <= Col Quantile( :X, 0.5 ), 2,
 Col Quantile( :X, 0.5 ) < :X <= Col Quantile( :X, 0.75 ), 3,
 4
);<BR /><BR />//&nbsp;OR&nbsp;a&nbsp;classification&nbsp;based&nbsp;on&nbsp;Rank&nbsp;//<BR /><BR />Round( (Col Rank( :X ) * 10) / N Rows(), 0 );

These are just workarounds.

Best,

TS

An auxiliary variable is a good idea, thanks

While playing around I found out that for long lists the values in a GraphBuiler plot don't match the values defined via Value Colors ( TS-00045154). According to Jmp support, this is a known issue and will be fixed in Jmp 18.
