Display and Arrange Open Windows
In JMP, typically you have several windows open at once (for example, data tables, reports, and the JMP
Home Window). JMP provides several ways to arrange and display these open windows.
On Windows:
• Press the CTRL + TAB keys to switch between windows.
• Use the Reveal feature (F9 or Window > Reveal). See “Using the Reveal Feature” on page 45.
• Use the options in the Window menu. Note that Arrange options are also available using the Arrange
Menu in the bottom right corner of most windows.
• To display the JMP Home Window, click the JMP Home Window button in the lower right corner
of most windows, or hold down CTRL and press 1.
