The syntax Scale( "Log" ) is preferred for setting a string literal. To catch ambiguous instances, set the new “Allow Unquoted Strings in JSL” General preference to “Yes (with a warning)” or “No”.
Column properties such as Missing Value Codes assign data values that produce incorrect calculations in Col functions (such as Col Mean()). To use the value in the data table cell instead of the missing value, refer to Col Stored Value() in the formula:
XOrigin(), YOrigin(), XRange(), and YRange() return the original coordinates when the axis is set to log scale. Previously, log-transformed values were returned.
