Double-click a numeric axis to customize it using the Axis Settings window. Or, right-click the axis area and select Axis Settings to access the window.
Customization features in the window depend on the data type of the axis and the specific platform JMP uses to create the plot or chart. Axis Settings Window for a Numeric (Continuous) Axis shows a typical Axis Settings window for numeric (continuous) axes.

To set a default scale type for a variable, which avoids making this change every time you run an analysis, see Axis in The Column Info Window.
For plots and charts that contain a numeric axis area, you can change the format of the axis. For details about numeric formats, see Numeric Formats in The Column Info Window.
|
•
|
If you selected Date, Time, or Duration, you need to specify the format of the increments. See Add and Remove Axis Labels. You can also specify label row nesting. See Label Row Nesting.

To add commas to values that equal a thousand or more, select the Use thousands separator option. You must account a space for each comma in the Width box, or else they might not appear. This option is available for the Best, Fixed Dec, Percent, and Currency formats.
|
Note: When you change the numeric format of an axis, you do not change the numeric format of the way the values appear in the corresponding data table. To change how a date or time appears in a data table, see Numeric Formats in The Column Info Window.

Select Reverse Order to reverse the axes by reversing the minimum and maximum values.
|
Tip: To set a default minimum and maximum axis value for a variable, which avoids making this change every time you run an analysis, see Axis in The Column Info Window.
The example on the right in Rescale Axis to Enlarge a Plot Section is an enlargement of the point cluster that shows between 80 and 140 in the plot to the left. The enlarged plot is obtained by reassigning the maximum and minimum axis values and changing the number of minor tick marks to 1. (See Extend Divider Lines and Frames for Categorical Axes, for details.)
If the axis Format is set to Date, Time, or Duration, a format menu appears beside Increment. See Selecting the Format for Date and Time Increments. Select which format you want the increments to take.
Tip: To set a default axis increment for a variable, which avoids making this change every time you run an analysis, see Axis in The Column Info Window.
You can add tick marks to a numeric axis, or change the number of minor tick marks that appear on a numeric axis. In the Axis Label Row panel, be sure to select the Minor Tick Marks box so that the tick marks appear on the axis.
Tip: To set default minor tick marks for a variable, which avoids making this change every time you run an analysis, see Axis in The Column Info Window.
To change the starting point of the tick marks, enter a number in the Tick Offset box. For example, if the Tick Offset is currently set to 0, setting it to 1 will move all the values on the axes up by 1.
This option appears only if you have selected Date, Time, or Duration as the axis Format. Label row nesting enables you to split a date axis into multiple rows based on the format. For example, you might put the year on the outermost row, then the month, then the day:

Data in a JMP report might not appear in the order that you prefer. To give data a specific order so that it appears that way in a report, assign the column the Value Ordering property before running the analysis, as described in Value Ordering in The Column Info Window.
Right-click the item in the legend and select Fill Pattern to select a new pattern.
Select File > Preferences > Graphs (Windows) or JMP > Preferences > Graphs (Macintosh) to change the Filled Areas preferences.
For details about adding maps, see Essential Graphing.
JMP includes a variety of image processing options. Image processing includes filters that can sharpen, blur, resize, and enhance. JMP also allows flipping, rotating, and locking images. Descriptions of Image Options details the processing options.

JMP provides the ability to extract information from images into a data table and then analyze that information. Researchers at WildTrack.org analyze digital footprint photos in JMP to track endangered species. They drag and drop a footprint image into a JMP report and draw data points to capture the size and shape of the print. A JMP Scripting Language (JSL) script extracts those measurements into a data table. At that point, the researchers can analyze the data and determine whether the footprint is from a new animal. This method helps them track populations of endangered species in specific regions of the world.
You can add a graph to a new data table. Right-click on a graph and select Edit > Make table of graphs like this. The graph and the variables appear in a new data table.
