only the selected markers are highlighted. Everything else is dimmed.

For information about setting the default marker selection mode, see “Reports” on page 368 in the “JMP
Preferences” chapter.
Specify Marker Transparency
You can change the transparency of markers (points) on a graph. For example, this enables you to control
the visibility of overlapping points.
Note: When the drawing speed is set to Fast, marker transparency settings revert to the default opaqueness
and marker size reverts to Preferred Size.
To adjust markers’ transparency:
1. In a graph, right-click anywhere and select Transparency. In a histogram, right-click the box plot area
on the right and select Transparency.
2. Type the level of transparency that you want the markers (points) to have on the graph, and click OK.
A value of 1 indicates total opaqueness and 0 indicates invisibility. Values between 1 and 0 are
semi-transparent.
Exclude and Hide Markers
Using the Exclude/Unexclude command, you can exclude highlighted rows from statistical analyses. Data
remains excluded until you select Rows > Exclude/Unexclude for those highlighted rows.
Note: Excluded data are not automatically hidden in plots even though they are excluded from calculations
in text reports and graphs.
Using the Hide/Unhide command, you can suppress (hide) the appearance of highlighted points in
scatterplots. For example, you can exclude points from analysis and then hide those same points in
scatterplots. The data remain hidden until you select Rows > Hide/Unhide for highlighted hidden rows.
