Custom displays
You can also use scripting to create new displays from results that JMP already knows how to make. For
example, quality engineers frequently study six common capability analysis displays for a process
variable: an Individual Measurement chart (also known as an X-chart), a moving range chart, a
histogram, a box plot, quantiles, and basic descriptive statistics. JMP provides each of these displays,
but by default they appear in two different platforms: the two classic QC displays are in Control Chart,
and the others are performed by Distribution.
To view these results together in one window, you simply need to build a New Window that contains
one parent Outline Box node with two results, one from Control Chart and the other from
Distribution. To do this, place the usual commands for launching the platforms inside VListBox,
which is simply a vertical container, and then glue the two containers together side-by-side with
HListBox, which is a horizontal container. The HListBox goes inside one OutlineBox, and that
comprises the contents of the New Window.
