About missing annotations and lines

Question

Hello,

I made a graphic via graphic builder and added some annotations and lines on it.

I saved file as jrp and jpeg.

However, when I opened this  jrp file again to add something, I saw nothing!

All annotations and lines are missing and I couldn't find!

Is there any solution to show or bring them back?

Thank you

Using JMP 18, I created a Graph Builder display with simple annotation.

I then used

File=>Save As

and saved the graphic, embedding the data table when asked.

Then I reopened the file and the annotation was included when it was displayed.

What release of JMP are you using?

Did you save as I described how I did?

You might be able to recover some by opening it as a script IF the information is there. For example I saved graph like this

with embedded data and the script looks like this

Local Here(
	table1 = Open("$SAMPLE_DATA/Big Class.jmp");
	table1 << Graph Builder(
		Size(528, 454),
		Show Control Panel(0),
		Variables(X(:height), Y(:weight)),
		Elements(Points(X, Y, Legend(6)), Smoother(X, Y, Legend(7))),
		SendToReport(
			Dispatch({}, "Graph Builder", FrameBox,
				{Add Text Annotation(
					Text("test"),
					Fixed Size(0),
					Text Box({91, 45, 130, 72}),
					Filled(0)
				), Add Polygon Annotation(
					Points(
						{161, 186},
						{92, 141},
						{23, 62},
						{107, 4},
						{183, 32},
						{198, 71},
						{62, 115}
					),
					Color("Blue"),
					Closed(1)
				)}
			)
		)
	);
)

which is able to recreate the report.
