2. Select Marker Drawing Mode, and then select either Normal or Fast.
Normal If JMP is in normal drawing mode and the number of markers in a graph are more than the
specified threshold number, JMP automatically switches to fast mode. See “Reports” on page 368 in the
“JMP Preferences” chapter, for details about setting the marker threshold.
Fast Graphs displaying a large number of markers appear faster if you set the marker drawing speed to
Fast. Note that when the drawing speed is set to Fast, marker size reverts to Preferred Size, and marker
transparency settings revert to the default opaqueness.
Outlined see “Add Outlines Around Markers” on page 283.
Add Outlines Around Markers
You can add a black outline, or frame, to markers in a plot. Outlined markers are available at the medium,
larger, XL, XXL, and XXXL marker size. (See “Change Marker Size” on page 282, for details.)
To add outlines:
1. Right-click a plot or graph.
2. Select Marker Drawing Mode.
3. Select Outlined.
To use an outline effectively, it is best if your marker is a color other than black.
To change marker colors:
1. Highlight the markers whose color you want to change.
2. Right-click anywhere in the graph.
3. Select Row Colors.
4. Select a marker color from the options that appear.
Marker Selection Modes
When you select markers on a graph, only the selected markers are highlighted. You can change the way
markers are highlighted on the current graph. The options are applied to the top two triangles in the
following figure.
